There is very little that can stop a semi-truck at highway speeds
In Switzerland we have Sand-Strips every so often for exactly that reason. If a Truck loses its Breaks it can drive into these Sand-Strips and it will safely and “gently” be stopped.
We have those in America too, we call them runaway ramps
