Claim Text:
1. A terminal arrangement for a road rail having a rail profile, wherein the terminal arrangement comprises: a terminal guiding device having a proximal end and a distal end and a body extending from the proximal end to the distal end; a ground attachment attached to a ground anchor and coupled with the distal end of the terminal guiding device wherein the ground attachment-has a plate, extending laterally toward the proximal end of the terminal profile, and wherein the distal end of the terminal profile is directly attached to the plate, and, wherein the distal end of the terminal guiding device is positioned directly above the ground anchor; and a terminal profile having a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the terminal profile extends within the terminal guiding device obliquely down to the ground anchor, wherein the distal end of the terminal profile is attached to the ground attachment; wherein the proximal end of the terminal profile is coupled with and extends from an end of the rail profile, and wherein the terminal guiding device is movable along the terminal profile and is capable of absorbing kinetic energy by deforming the terminal profile and the rail profile upon impact.
