Yikes, this is why you don’t tailgate a truck. Anyway, only the Manac underride guard protected cars from all 3 35mph crashes. The other ones…well, you don’t want to be in those accidents.

According to the rear end collision data from the Swedish insurance company Folksam and Autoliv 56% of all rear-end crashes are full overlap and 28% of rear-end collisions have 1/3 to 2/3 overlap. Only 14.2% of rear end collisions would be less then 1/3 overlap and end up hitting the outside edge of this under-ride guard as shown in the video. So at least you have statistics on your side. You can also get an impact attenuator / under-ride guard for your pickup truck or SUV at sparebumper.com.
