The concept you're referring to is known as "crumple zones." Crumple zones are designed to absorb and dissipate the energy generated during a collision by deforming in a controlled manner. This controlled crushing of specific sections of the vehicle helps to reduce the impact forces transmitted to the occupants, thereby enhancing their safety during a crash. By allowing different parts of the vehicle to crumple at varying rates, crumple zones extend the time over which the deceleration occurs, further minimizing injury risk.
