WHOA! A little slower and safer friends!

  1. Those look like the guardrails that were not made correctly. They are supposed to peel off from the posts, but not go through the cars, like these did.

    1. right! I was just looking at an infographic in a magazine crediting John Fitch with creating guard rails for safety... I thought I had posted, but it seems I haven't gotten to that yet, so many things distract me and keep me from catching up on posting the stuff I find in magazines

  2. I read somewhere that the outfit that makes most of the guardrails made a small change to a bolt in the tapered end of the guardrail. Saved them a couple of bucks and the part no longer functions as it should allowing the rail to come off and impale cars. Lawsuits pending.
