What is the condition of the guardrail? Was it taken to the Government woodshop for repairs?
What guard rail? What is it guarding you from? That is not a guard rail, that is why that vehicle is off the road. Metal barriers are the safest barriers to prevent vehicles from going overboard or down cliffs or embankments. Those wooden posts are just for show,just a guide to keep you from drifting of the road.
That wooden guardrail sure did it’s job. Kept the driver and car safe on the road and did not let it anywhere near the water.
Another driver very lucky not to have his head relocated by wood coming through the car.
