    "On average at least 29 pedestrians are killed each year in collisions with bull bar equipped vehicles."

    Would be more useful to know how many of these people would have survived if the vehicle did not have a bull bar.

    And how many killed by vehicles outright, regardless of make or accessories?

    Just having a quick look through the link and the documentation that comes with it in the frontal protection section... I think that you will find that it makes very little difference to most bullbar manufacturing companies, and it probably wont affect NSW at all.
