[edit] Article suggestions

1. While the SAFER barrier concept is admirable, this article would really be much more compelling if there were information about how it actually performs, and whether any SAFER impacts have occurred and what the results were.
2. The Other Forms should be reworked into a standard "See also" linked section, or greatly expanded to explain, compare, and contrast these technologies.
3. Are there any plans to use this in public street or highway applications?

EncMstr, watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uI96AKMswLM - I suggest it be linked in the article. JCCyC (talk) 03:16, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

Impressive. Is there a statistical roundup of crashes like this with and without SAFER? Another suggestion:

• A diagram or detailed photo of the construction of the barrier
