TOWING SPEED VS. DISTANCE  

TOWING SPEED  

SPEED (MPH)  

Towing Speed:  

  Towing speed is never to exceed 3 mph –  

Speeds greater than 3 mph may cause severe  

wheel damage  

  For longer distance transfers, the speed limit  

reduces (see Chart)  

o

  1 mile transfer 

 3 mph maximum  

o

  2 mile transfer 

 2 mph maximum  

o

  3 mile transfer 

 1 mph maximum   

  Towing distance should not exceed 3 miles    

Limitations and Warnings  

ArmorGuard Barrier  has been rigorously tested  and  

evaluated per the recommendations in the NCHRP  Report 

350 Guidelines for Test Level 3 (TL-3)  longitudinal barri-

ers.  The impact conditions  recommended in NCHRP 350 

are intended to address  typical in-service collisions.   

When ArmorGuard Barrier is properly installed and  main-

tained, the system is capable of redirecting  impacting ve-

hicles in a predictable and safe manner  under the NCHRP 

350 impact conditions of:  

Vehicles:  Pickup (2000P) and small car (820C)  

Mass:       4400 lbs. (2000 kg) & 1800 lbs. (820 kg)  

Speed:     62 mph (100 km/hr)  

Angle:      25 degrees for pickup and 20 degrees for  

small car  

Vehicle impacts that vary from the NCHRP 350 impact  

conditions described for longitudinal barriers may result  

in significantly different results than those experienced  in 

testing.  Vehicle impact characteristics different than  or 

in excess of those encountered in NCHRP 350  testing 

(speed and angle) may result in system  performance that 

may not meet the NCHRP 350  evaluation criteria.
