ABSTRACT:
In order to prevent a car being run over or run onto by a commercial vehicle with which it collides, an anti-crash system is proposed for commercial vehicles which on the one hand absorbs kinetic energy and on the other hand is able to deflect a colliding car. For this purpose, beneath the conventional bumper, there is provided a spoiler which is either rigidly connected with the commercial vehicle, is curved forwards in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle or is formed by a plurality of components which are able to be moved out forards by a measuring and range finding sensor and a suitable operating system. The components are then so aligned that they are able to deflect the colliding car.
