    Abstract: The cushion according to one embodiment is a deformable resilient apparatus with a surface for allowing various vehicles to transverse from a first surface to a second surface that are separated by an obstacle without damaging the obstacle. The cushion deforms to fit the space between the vehicle and the obstacle, thereby preventing concentration of stress on the obstacle. The cushion is constructed such that it does not slide out of place when engaged by tracks or wheels of a vehicle. The cushion is constructed to deform and distribute the force applied by the vehicle onto the object more uniformly.
