This report summarizes the results of a series of simulated and impact tests conducted on a NJ Breakaway Sign structure. The tests were aimed at isolating and modifying those aspects of the system which were causing excessive damage to components as a result of vehicular impacts in the field. This made it necessary to return the entire sign structure to the shop for repairs in lieu of re-erecting it with a few parts changed. Prior to incorporating modifications into the standard specifications, full scale instrumented vehicular crash tests were also conducted.
