A red smear shows where one of the wheels left a mark on the barrier along with the rest of the tanker. Researchers from the Midwest Roadside Safety Facility conducted a rare tractor-tanker crash to test how a newly designed and significantly less tall concrete roadside barrier performs in a crash. The test was at the facility’s Outdoor Proving Grounds on the western edge of the Lincoln Municipal Airport. December 8, 2021. Photo by Craig Chandler / University Communication.
