Have a look on some onboard from Targa Florio. These endings are everywhere. On most of the places You can't put any hay bails from space reasons. I anyway doubt they can have any effect because if the rail can easily penetrate whole car some hay is like a butter for it. Here You would have not to run these stages at all if You want to avoid the risk.

You didn't go into them by the fork lift at 100 km/h, did You? If You crash into the rails at 10 km/h they don't penetrate the car either.
