Ideally, guard rails should be able to stop fast-moving vehicles essentially by absorbing their momentum. If the errant vehicle is quite heavy or is moving at great speeds, the guard rail may be damaged. However, this damage is nothing compared to the property damage and casualties that may potentially happen if there is no guard rail in place.

Due to the availability of vehicles and the ease of access to roads, traffic accidents became commonplace all over the country. It is as if you will never learn to be careful until it happens to you. Given how common road accidents are, there is almost no objection from property owners when they are advised to have guard rails installed.
