@Karen when the safety braking system was first made the company (i think BMW but don't hold me to that) did a press event when they drove the car at 40 mph at another in the fog room... unfortunately the engineers forgot to turn the system on and reer ended it with a bunch of press photographers and cameramen watching XD
But for safety in the official tests the engines and electrics are turned off (they just pull it by a wire), they don't want the engine blowing up, that isn't what they're testing, though I'm sure that is also tested at another point as well.
