Full scale vehicle crash tests were conducted to evaluate a variety of vehicle arresting, redirecting, energy absorbing, and impact attenuation systems. In addition, research work was done to establish the feasibility of using steel drums, lightweight cellular concrete, corrugated metal pipe, and concrete pipe as energy absorbing materials for such vehicle impact attenuation systems. Several of these vehicle impact attenuation systems are noted to have been successfully implemented on the nation's highways.
