# Commission Decision of 23 December 2003 on the technical prescriptions for the implementation of Article 3 of Directive 2003/102/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council relating to the protection of pedestrians and other vulnerable road users before and in the event of a collision with a motor vehicle and amending Directive 70/156/EEC (notified under document number C(2003) 5041) (Text with EEA relevance) (2004/90/EC), Division 3.4.2.4

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The required impact velocity, the direction of impact and the upper legform impactor mass shall be determined as specified in points 3.4.2.6 and 3.4.2.7. The tolerance to the impact velocity is ± 2 % and the tolerance to the impact direction is ± 2°. The effect of gravity shall be taken into account when the impact velocity is obtained from measurements taken before the time of first contact. The upper legform impactor mass should be measured to an accuracy of better than ± 1 %, and if the measured value differs from the required value then the required velocity should be adjusted to compensate, as specified in point 3.4.2.7.
