Forces acting on a curve!!! on a car bumper?

how is force distributed during an oblique collision(side frontal crash) of a car? when the car is crashed at angle on the bumper, will the force transmitted be in the same direction or will it move down the bumper equally to the crumple beams? i m doing a project on crumple zones and i need to know this. pl help me.

The force will be transmitted along the bumper to the other bumper mont but not equally.The side that is hit will crumple most and the other side will crumple less.
