Hood
Full qualified VSS Path: Vehicle.Body.Hood
Description: Hood status. Start position for Hood is Closed.
Comment: The hood is the hinged cover over the engine compartment of a motor vehicles. Depending on vehicle, it can be either in the front or back of the vehicle. Luggage compartments are in VSS called trunks, even if they are located at the front of the vehicle.
