Abstract

This paper, the 2nd in a series, describes testing of the Midwest Guardrail System (MGS) with standard post spacing installed with the top guardrail height set at the design's nominal rail height. The 4,491 lb pickup truck test vehicle impacted the MGS with a nominal height at a speed of 63 mph at an angle of 25 deg. A summary of test results and sequential photographs from the testing are provided, and additional photographs of the crash test are also included.
