head/back/kiester by stock during a sudden stop. I feel less alone

When I buy heavy, pointy materials (lumber, rebar, metal stock, etc.) and I
put it in my pickup, I make sure the forward ends are on the passenger side
of the truck. That way, if I run into ..., uh, if *someone else* runs into
me head-on, I won't get impaled. Saw a movie once where that happened and
the image has stuck with me.
