Cost so much less than armco, and reduce the likelyhood of cars bouncing back onto the road. There never going to swap back to armco the only way you will ever get the "cheese cutters" off the highway is to design something better cheaper. Good luck I wish you well.

There was a bloke who designed a cover for the fucking things a while ago it was cheap and a lot safer that that shit but the gov didn't even consider it ..

They banned them in Europe because they were too dangerous. But in typical Oz Govt. fuck up fashion, because they're cheap, they'll keep them. Fortunately we have enough proof they're a lethal object and so in the event someone loses a leg there is more than enough evidence to prove the government was negligent in installing them when you decide to sue them. The only issue is you have to survive first.
