Imagine a regular car hitting that. Would decapitate anyone inside.

I thought they were supposed to give a little as not to obliterate the vehicle and kill the passengers instantly?

That was my first thought as well. Seems to do more damage than not.
I think the creator's original thought was that this type of barrier would stop a vehicle entirely rather than slow them down.

Maybe protecting some highly sensitive military installations. Say military bases in conflict zones.

Well that doesn't seem very well thought out.
I guess maybe they would use those at Military installations and other high security places ?

this makes no sense to be used as a traffic barrier. its got to be some sort of proposed security pylon

That would be a terrible traffic device. Truck plates already work well for security standoff applications so not sure what the point is

I think that's the point. As opposed to bollards.

Find the Reddit WTF pictures of the guy driving the convertible that went through the cable barrier like the ones between BR and Hammond.
One poster said that bikers call that thing the cheese grater.
