Brushguards on trucks pose safety hazard.

Heavy duty grill guards pose a safety threat to all motorists.

Why is this important?

Heavy and light truck "brush guards" pose dangers to both parties in an accident. In single or multivehicle accidents, heavy duty brush guards delay the ability of airbags to properly deploy in an accident. They also defeat the crumple zones that are engineered into vehicles to absorb the impact of a crash, not only endangering the parties driving the vehicle with brush guards, but other vehicles involved in the accident.
