But the H1 is a class 3 truck and is not subject to these tests.

Its true, the rollbars are not real rollbars.
That's not the entire story. That refers specifically to early 1970s NHTSA regs. It only refers to Safety Standard 216 but doesn't mention Safety Standard 208 whereby all vehicles have to protect occupants in a 30mph lateral rollover.
