Rationale

A

The outer face of the tube (orthogonal to the front face) at the intersection of the two tubes

To observe the stress behaviour of a tube near the location of impact

B

The outer face of the tube (orthogonal to the front face) at the mid-height of the collision object.

To observe the stress behaviour at the location of impact

C

The top face of the tube of the indicated tube, specifically at the intersection.

To observe the stress behaviour of a tube away from the collision object.

At a location of safety significance to the front driver passenger.
