-l- ENERGY ABSORBING BARRIER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An energy absorbing barrier for dissi- pating kinetic energy upon impact by a moving vehicle. The barrier comprises walls defining a container closed except for a fill opening to admit water. The side walls are resiliently deformable to return to their original shape after being struck, and include longitudinally extending, vertically spaced apart traction spoiler channels to reduce the area of contact between the barrier and the tires of a vehicle. The end walls include fittings for end coupling of a barrier to like bar- riers. The fittings permit adjacent barriers to be located at different heights to accommodate grad- ual changes in terrain elevation, and end couplers enable arrangement of end coupled barriers in cur- vilinear and other configurations.
