Legend! If you look carefully, the offroader hit it hard enough to set the airbags off. I bet the bastards claim it on their insurance though. Insurance should be invalidated for acts of 'stupidity'!

cheers

We've got those all over uni, luckily they are triggered by any car... not just special ones. Have still seen one person get stuck on them before though :? :roll:

If only I'd got a better picture of it, there was a car wedged ontop of a non moving barrier! I went over a bump at the time, so the camera got more dash than car. Basically they'd done a U turn on the motorbike forecourt and failed to notice two barriers, goalpost shaped, bumper height, and somehow managed to get it wedged ontop of it!

Ace video Dave! We've some of those in a local town and there were so many accidents in the first few weeks they leave them down I think now!

ROFL, what they are trying to do, go past them without paying or something like that? Sure more speed is the answer :lol:

I have seen in photos cars driven down to subway stairs or to ship and many other silly things, there is just ppl that really don't need their license, also insurance should be void permanently so any damage they cause comes from their pocket, of course they would need to pay insurance just in case they cause injuries or something like that to other pedestrians :lol:
