Abstract
A yieldable assembly comprising a flange and post connected by elongated support means which allows the post to separate from the flange when struck by a vehicle but which retains connection therebetween. The support means yields under tensile strain and imparts a balanced restraining force to the vehicle after separation of the flange and post.
