This is about the day that changed the way i used to perceive life. This is the day that the 'Drive safe' signboards all over the city made sense to me. The realization to value life, only comes when you see a near death situation and come very close to loosing your life.
It was a normal evening and me and my friends were driving back from college towards our home across the river. My friend was behind the wheels and he suddenly started driving really fast on the bridge. By the time we could stop him or could make him understand that this was dangerous, he lost control, the car turned twice and collided with an
Impact Barrier, placed at the end of the bridge.All of us, were in deep shock and could not understand what happened to us. The Impact Barrier was placed at the critical intersection where the car turned and helped us reduce the impact of the head on collision.
Impact barriers comprise of high water ballast, that reduces injury to errand drivers and their unique three layer construction with foaming in the middle adds to extra strength of the barrier. The High reflectivity of an Impact Barrier gives an early warning to rash drivers. They also have extremely high anti abrasion properties.
This incident has made me more safety conscious, while on the road, and has also made me more knowledgeable about other safety designs on the road, especially placed for us. One of these durable and tamper resistant product is a
Column protector. Embedded with highly reflective material, an all weather resistant strength, international bright coloured availability and high strength rubber, these column protectors are easy to install. These are widely used in kindergarten, children park, parking lots, hospitals, hotels, schools, airports and offices, because of it's positives such as anti bumping ability, Eco friendly and non toxic material usage, along with high reflectivity for early danger signs.
