@theguardrailguy The more I see with guardrails, the more the statement about them being fixed objects that can result in injury if not properly installed rings in my head (from a training I took). Heck even with a proper install, this can still happen.
Definitely food for thoug

This is a photo from Matt Smith at Matt's Towing. Victim was uninjured. Crash was in Attalla, Alabama on 9/4/2026.
Be like Matt and if you work a guardrail crash like this please reach out and let me know. The bad guys don't want the world to know how common this problem is. ht

"We have to start over". I am sorry for this damage but happy for you because you have the opportunity "to start over". Not everyone gets that chance.

@GovNedLamont if it looks like FRAUD and smells like FRAUD what is it?
@CTDOTOfficial please side with the people of Connecticut and stop this contractor before they kill someone. https://t.co/XxRISBRMbh

@theguardrailguy I tweeted this 48 hours ago and when I woke up you were already at 16k. I think most credit goes to the new twitter algorithm and your own strong following elsewhere but I'm very happy to have been the guy to light the fuze.
Keep on truckin 💪

This guy lost his daughter because of an incorrectly installed guardrail that killed her in a motor vehicle crash.
He's devoted his life to finding these incorrect installs and getting local governments to fix them.
