Both vehicles in my cars case had "Energy Absorbing bumpers" oh and lest you think hitting a Guardrail at roughly 75 to 85 degree angle at 40 is a gentle tap..I implore you to try it out....it is not a minor matter...Colleen still has bruises where the seatbelt grabbed her. I was braced on the steering wheel.
