The dummy (which is made with similar weight, centre of gravity and dimensions to a live moose) is used to simulate realistic moose collisions. Australian car manufacturers use crash test kangaroo dummies for similar reasons. [17]
The Build Team hooked a force meter between a car's rear bumper and a telephone pole and found that the car could pull with a force of 1,300 lbf (590 kgf). Based on the breaking strength data from the bridge testing, they wrapped five rolls of tape around the car and pole to bind the two together.
