PROTON CAR ACCIDENTS - A COMPILATION OF REAL WORLD CRASHES

IT HAS BEEN 5 YEARS since Proton adopted a technology known as HOT PRESS FORMING (HPF) which was used in some of their latest car models.

QUOTE

“In order to develop the REinforced Safety Structure (RESS), Proton acquired the Hot Press Forming (HPF) technology, making Proton the first carmaker in the ASEAN region and eighth in the world to acquire the Hot Press Forming technology. In the HPF technology, steel pieces are heated to 900 °C and the red hot steel pieces are stamped before being quenched at 4 °C, changing the steel phase from austenite to martensite. The process increases the strength of steel parts from the original 500 MPa to 1,500 MPa.”

ACADEMIC DISCUSSION WRITTEN BY MALAYSIAN ON HOT PRESS FORMING (HPF):

1) “Evaluation of hot press forming parts for Euro NCAP 5-star in Proton Preve” - http://dspace.unimap.edu.my/xmlui/bitstrea....pdf?sequence=1

2) “Optimization of quenching process in hot press forming of 22MnB5 steel for high strength
properties” - http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/...50/1/012064/pdf

3) “An overview of high thermal conductive hot press forming die material”
development - http://jmes.ump.edu.my/images/Volume_9/14_...and%20Aqida.pdf

Laboratory crash test might not tell the whole truth about vehicle’s crashworthiness. So why not we see for ourselves how these HPF-equipped Proton cars perform in the real world.

We have seen time and time again how people simply perish in car accidents. Sometimes the whole family was wipe out in an event that probably takes mere seconds. They’re all gone. Forever. And most of the time, it wasn’t even their fault. It’s heartbreaking.

From car safety point of view, they are two types of carmakers in MALAYSIA: (1) the FIRST WORLD carmakers that make cars to comply with the THIRD WORLD safety standards; OR (2) the THIRD WORLD carmaker that makes cars to comply with the FIRST WORLD safety standards.

The BRAND power is strong. No matter how hard that carmaker is trying to sell its safe cars, Malaysians are still going to buy that freaking Dugong which is probably made out of a few thin layers of metal sheet. When accidents happen, there will be a group of people that going to suggest an alternative to that Dugong, and there will be another group of people that going to say “kalau dah takdir, naik kereta kebal pun boleh mati”.

Feel free to post photos of accidents involving any of these HPF-equipped models here.

You may use https://ctrlq.org/images/ to upload the photos and hotlinking it here. [No registration or sign-up required]. I would appreciate if you could include a short commentary on that accident such as what types of vehicles were involved and whether or no there was fatality.

"Passive safety nombor satu, dia punya “COLLAPSIBLE ENGINE MOUNTING”

enjin dia berat, lebih daripada 200 kilo

so, kalau ada frontal collision, kalau enjin tak jatuh ke bawah, dia akan masuk dalam kabin

itu pasal kereta-kereta lama dulu, KAKI PUTUS

sekarang tak

collapsible engine mounting tu memang design terbaru, kalau tengok kereta Jerman, kereta-kereta moden semua, itu yang pertama"

PETRONAS and CIMB Debit Card

syafiqsm — Tue, 14 Mar 2017 11:24:17 +0800

Hi guys,

Last week I filled up petrol at Petronas Station in Putrajaya using CIMB Debit Card because I couldn't find any BHP station nearby. A few hours later I checked my bank account, somehow they didn't hold the usual RM 200 for using debit card at the pump. I tried again at Petronas stations in Bangi and Serdang, it was the same.

When I used the card with BHP station, and the usual pre-auth RM 200 is there. But not Petronas?

Do anyone of you know about this already?

“…saya sendiri pergi….to Australia…to witness the test [The Australasian New Car Assessment Program (ANCAP)]…

so kalau nak tengok kereta, lepas accident, kereta tu safety dia ok ke tak ok… you know what is the first test???……………..

PINTU BOLEH BUKAK!…

kalau you boleh bukak pintu, maknanya dia punya structure dia tak berganjak tau… pasal pintu gap is very close kan…

kalau structure dia kemek… dia dah tak boleh bukak pintu, bila tak boleh bukak pintu… macam mana orang dalam nak keluar?… bomba nak menyelamat?… tak boleh kan?…

that’s why one of the important criteria… untuk check whether vehicle tu safe tak safe… after any crash……..

Kalau dia boleh bukak pintu, that’s a good car!… itu dia!”

Proton Iriz Accident [CASUALTIES REPORTED]

syafiqsm — Tue, 31 Jan 2017 12:06:07 +0800

It seems that Proton Iriz cannot stand side impact collision (T-Bone), presumably at high speed. From the photo, judging by the deployment of driver's curtain airbag, this Iriz is a Premium variant. The car's body is severely deformed.

"The best car I ever had was a Proton"

syafiqsm — Sat, 31 Dec 2016 23:32:53 +0800

Motorist, 96, hands in licence after driving for 80 years without an accident

QUOTE

Over the years, Stephen has had many different cars.

His first car was a Ford Escort, which cost less than £100. He currently owns a Mercedes 220S.

The pensioner's past portfolio of motors features a Bentley and even a 1916 Model T Ford as a novelty for the business.

He said: "I never went for sports car or real flash.

"The best car I ever had was a Proton. It was economic, reliable and cheap to fix.
