nope i not kidding if it not safe and can not work right then hit your far better with a nothing this is made to hit or peel up and kill you ???so if you fall a sleep then it runs thru the truck and kills someone its fine .if you hit that at 70 and it comes up like that thru one of your loved ones you may not think like that ?? give me a break that stuff is tested by DOT if if not installed rigth who s ass is going to get sued off .i am telling you the new rails have more then end caps and cement barrier walls are used to stop this dumb $hit. but i see here were we will not see eye to eye

Yeah, they went from open ends to burying the ends, but determined that the buried end made a ramp that launched cars over the rail Some have a section of posts and cables before the steel rail, and others have a big square cap on the ends or barrels of sand/water. I agree, hitting the rail should not impale the car like that.
