Rubber protection is applied to the load-bearing poles of roadside railings along curves. The rubber protection is produced from recycled tires.

The intention is to achieve a 50% reduction in fatal head blows caused by falling off motorcycles in curves, which often results in fractures of the cervical vertebrae.

The rubber protection is simply pressed onto the poles on the road side.

Attached are four photographs presented on a road curve.
