This barrier returns the vehicle back to its lane, preventing it from crossing into the oncoming traffic and ensuring drivers' safety in conditions of limited visibility. The width of the beam section also plays a significant role, blocking a large portion of the light flux from oncoming vehicles.
Median lightweight barrier with a detachable beam is used on federal and regional roads, where there is a high risk of a vehicle crossing into oncoming traffic.
