ABSTRACT:
A guard beam is disposed below the bottom of the rear end of a trailer or truck. Energy absorbing members are connected between the trailer and the guard beam. When impact forces applied to the guard beam exceed predetermined minimum levels, the guard beam collapses and energy is absorbed in the absorbing members during the collapse of the beam.
