Patent abstract
An underride protection bumper for a trailer is provided which functions as two separate bumpers during different stages of impact to provide optimal energy absorption, impact vehicle ride-down and underride protection characteristics. Another underride protection bumper provides a support member extending diagonally inboard to counteract inboard-directed forces on trailer attachment member, thereby absorbing impact energy and minimizing underride of an impacting vehicle.
