Literally!

So what are we saying here chaps?

That if a lidl lid fairs badly in the Sharp test its cos its cheap.
and
That if an expensive lid from Arai does badly its because the test is floored?!?

Some consistency please.

actual real life RTAs / track crashes etc.

Thats probably the only sound way of working it out, although all accidents vary enourmously so the only way to know what happened in each respective accident would be to speak to eye witnesses, the rider (assuming he/she can remember) or to fit some kind of recording/measuring device. Helmet mounted cameras are becoming increasingly popular, and must prove very useful when trying to work out what happened in an accident.
