This Bar Saves Cyclists' Lives
Fall off your bike next to this truck, and you slide straight under it, right in front of the back wheels.
From the video's description
fall off your bike next to a truck and you can slide under it, right in front of the back wheels. In Europe, trucks and trailers must have side guards (Council Directive 89/297/EEC), a bar that keeps you out and lets you slide along it, away from the wheels. In the US there is still no federal rule that requires them.
