A collision accident response system for a vehicle includes: a transparent glass attached to a front surface of the vehicle; a transparent pressure sensor film attached to a rear surface of the transparent glass; and a control unit embedded in the vehicle. The control unit is configured to determine a height and a collision strength of a collision object by a collision pressure detected by the transparent pressure sensor film. As a result, the collision accident response system for a vehicle enables a rapid and accurate response to collision accidents in vehicles equipped with the front glass.

Collision accident response system and method for a vehicle

A variable back beam and a method of allowing an inflator to vary the variable back beam in case of collision. The variable back beam includes a main beam connected to a front end module carrier, an inner beam inserted into each of both sides of the main beam, and an operation member operable to move the inner beam in a vehicle-width direction at the time of left front or right front collision of the vehicle. Since the back beam is extended in length at the time of collision, the impact area or shock absorption area of the back beam can be increased, the impact on the back beam, a crush box, and a collision object can be reduced, and particularly, it is possible to reduce the crush length of the left or right end of the back beam.
