This might seem like a shock, especially given that it's 2021, but car manufacturers aren't legally responsible for testing crash test dummies to simulate women. Men and women have different anatomies, such as muscle distribution and average size, yet women are being ignored in the design process. This is not specific to the car industry either.

In her book, Invisible Women, Caroline Criado-Perez dives deep into the world of design and highlights the different areas where women have been ignored.
