steel guardrail
Highway safety barrier
A steel guardrail is a protective barrier made of steel, typically installed along roadsides, bridges, or elevated areas to prevent vehicles from leaving the roadway or falling from heights.
Highway guardrails absorb impact and redirect vehicles, reducing crash severity: The car clipped the steel guardrail and spun back onto the shoulder.
