The cyclist falls under the rear wheels and is run over, something that&#8217;s frequently fatal. With the protective bars, they help prevent cyclists from falling under the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"595\" height=\"419\" src=\"https:\/\/www.driverknowledgetests.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/side-underrun-protection-595x419.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.driverknowledgetests.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/side-underrun-protection-595x419.jpg 595w, https:\/\/www.driverknowledgetests.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/side-underrun-protection-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.driverknowledgetests.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/side-underrun-protection-768x541.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.driverknowledgetests.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/side-underrun-protection.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><figcaption>Underrun with high-visibility markings. The device does not obscure the marker lights.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another scenario is a pedestrian that trips and falls against the vehicle, or a motorcyclist that loses balance, or a car that slides under the trailer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can also increase the aerodynamic efficiency of a truck or trailer (especially if the underrun protection device is a fairly solid panel), and it can provide a means to detect or prevent potential damaging situations, for example, where a roadside obstacle might be pushed out of the way of the rear wheels by the relatively inexpensive barrier, as opposed to damaging tyres and suspension components. Underrun protection costs around $1000, which is minimal compared to the potential disruption and cost of damaging a wheel and suspension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A cost-benefit analysis of underrun protection can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/acrs.org.au\/files\/arsrpe\/RS030141.pdf\">here<\/a>. It states that crashes involving a truck without underrun are difficult for a vehicle&#8217;s crumple zones to mitigate because the impact point is often the bonnet or the A pillars which don&#8217;t have the structural rigidity of the engine block and bigger crumple zones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In some countries, side underrun protection devices are called lateral protection devices. They are mandatory in Europe and must conform to UN ECER73 which outlines their minimum dimensions and installation practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The toolbox, fuel tanks and other devices can form part of the underrun protection, as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"595\" height=\"352\"
