Not sure about yours, but my ARB bullbar slopes back at the top, so if I hit a standing adult they would fold at the waist over the bullbar, land on the bonnet and might slide up the windscreen onto the roof.
A child might go under because of being shorter.
Any pedestrian hit hard enough to fly up into a roof mounted light bar is going to have a REALY bad day regardless...
survability rates of people with untorn flesh is greater then people who got turn up.Quote:

Apparently bullbars are a factor in 12% of pedestrian deaths. That would be a city thing, of course.
In the country animal strikes are the issue. I certainly don't fancy having a big roo flailing about on the bonnet.

Statistics show seven post bull bars are involved in less deaths than five post bull bars.
Also, those same statistics show pedestrians are involved in 100% of pedestrian deaths and bull bars are only involved in 12% of pedestrian deaths. That is very telling.
the solution is simple.
ban pedestrians.
Good idea. Buy me a car then 🤣Quote:
