What is an "arrester bed"?
An arrester bed is a safety feature found on some roads or runways, designed to stop vehicles that are out of control or moving too fast. It consists of a long, flat area filled with materials like gravel or sand that can slow down and stop a vehicle by absorbing its energy. Arrester beds are often placed at the end of runways at airports or near highways where vehicles may lose control due to mechanical failure, weather, or driver error. They are used to prevent serious accidents and help protect drivers and passengers from harm.
Example
Emergency crews quickly cleared the arrester bed after the accident.
Drivers should know the location of the nearest arrester bed in case of brake failure.
The truck driver was relieved when his brakes failed, but he saw the arrester bed ahead.
