Differentiate Frontal Crash as per NHTSA and IIHS

As per NHTSA's Frontal crash regulation, A car accelerates directly onto a rigid barrier at 35mph with the entire width of the vehicle hitting the barrier. Instrument bearing, seat belted crash test dummies placed in the two front seats record the crash forces on the head, neck, chest and legs.

As per IIHS' Frontal crash regulation, they are quite different from the NHTSA's as they are designed to highlight the vehicles structural integrity as well as restraint performance. There are two test methods, one that engages 40% of a vehicle's front and a newer test inaugrated in 2012 that uses a smaller overlap of 25% of the car's front.
 The IIHS test simulates what would happen if two cars of same weight would and type crashed head on, partially overlapping.
