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.
