Non Yielding Rail Prevents Serious Damage In Accident
A 26,000 pound diesel truck ran off U S 59 near Houston at 50 mph but caused only minor damage after hitting Texas first non yielding median rail. The rail deflects vehicles back into traffic and features a wire fence to reduce night glare and deter crossings. The system shows promise for wider use statewide.
