Opposition to Crush Protection

Some year ago, there was some very poor research conducted into rollover protection on quads. This caused some to falsely believe that crush protection may not have significant value, and therefore oppose their use. The following video shows how appalling that early research was! More information on the subject can be found in the technical library.
