%X The crashworthiness of a 1.5-m-radius plate beam guardrail was evaluated in a program that included two full-scale vehicle crash tests. A small-size and a full-size test vehicle were towed head-on into the median rail system. A description of the guardrail is given as well as a description and results of the test. The Minnesota plate beam guardrail performed rates factorily under full-scale, head-on impacts by both large and small automobiles.<p />
