Yes, I believe there is a standard international bumper height set by
those well known experts in design safety



You may remember that bumpers (the old chrome-plated ones) had
overriders at either side to cater for differences in actual height
between conflicting vehicles' bumpers...


My first real car had rear overriders mounted on flat spring steel
bolted to the chassis. Chassis! There a word you don't often hear:-)
