Stay Off My Guardrail!

Not challenging you. It just seems like a few of the posters in this thread think that they are your original photos.

Tell the truth, was it my stance of dominance?

Damn good thing there was no passenger(s).

Get your guardrail outta my car!

He should pay to have the guardrail replaced.

why? he should sue the state for implementing unsafe guardrails. thats what i would do.


motionman, would i have a case here?

Good thing he was driving a tank.

No, he was driving an SUV. I drive an actual tank so that I don't need to worry about the road.

In California, he (or his insurance) would. I am not sure about Montana.
He'd be paying for about six employees, at least 3 vehicles, an end treatment, posts, blocks and 120 feet of guardrail. Assuming it all went smoothly, that's about six hours labor. Now add another two hours for setting up and taking down the traffic control.
I'd guess someone will be out around $4500.

In Chicago, that would take six months and $450,000 to complete.

It's called an "End Treatment" and it was in place.

hmmm, I guess they don't really work that well huh.

yes

The vehicle likely didn't strike the guardrail at the end treatment. If you look at the pic that shows the rear view, the rail is severely distorted. He likely hit it downstream of the et.
