People in Idaho pretty much aim for these things 😳 One of these "Frankenstein rails" killed a buddy of ours the same way 😣

Guardrail could be helpful, however, it's a questionable rail! If the impact of an accident against the guardrail is death, then we'd rather have none. Perhaps short thick bushes will make it safe and appealing during the day. At night, honestly reflecting paints on the road will help most drivers!!!

Pro tip: Don't run into guard rails.

Wait a minute. The way they reported this story is as if the Guard Rail all of a sudden became alive and speared the young females vehicle with her in it.
