i dnt see what the fuss is about. theyre not exactly 12' spears - theyre rasing bollards. designed to keep cars out of the pedestrianised zone. im sure everyone here would be pissed off if it happened to them... but it isnt going to happen to anyone who knows what a no-entry sign looks like.
How the hell do we know who's forgeign to you? I know your american because only americans can be so ignorant. You are a foreigner to 95% of the world.
actually stupidiest engineer solution ever, ok may be drivers are stupid, but there are also pedestrians near the road, the crashed cars eventualy could hit them.
rofl. This is seriously how they need to enforce things in America.
"If you do something stupid, bad things happen to you."
The solution? Don't do it, morons. People whine that they'd sue for such a thing, but if you don't want those things pile driving your car, keep it out of where it doesn't belong. Here you can get away with suing a construction company for building a wall you ran into, for god's sake.

That's disgraceful, what if somebody has children in the car... irrespective of the fact that they are breaking a law, driving in a bus lane hardly warrants the potential of serious injury to the driver and passangers. Serious neck injuries can ruin lives... The lunatics who put this system in place clearly value the enforcement of minor traffic regulations over public safety and human life.
To get a driver's license, you must study all of the traffic signs, including the "do-not-enter" found outside of most bus only areas. Furthermore, the first person in the video knew the obstacle was there (0:10) and was simply trying to rush past it (0:45). In all three shots, the vehicles were either tailgating or were borderline.
Are you serious? There is a BIG RED FLASHING sign that means 'Do Not Enter!' If you can't understand that, maybe you should have your neck snapped. As for their kids? Welp, it's sad and all but at least we'll have less generations of twats out and about.

That's like saying it's ok to push people off their bike if they cycle on the footpath. This is a minor traffic violation, should we kneecap people for jaywalking too?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The designers are partially liable.
Although there is a sign, human beings make mistakes and sometimes tourists can't read signs that are non-standard, unexpected, and all text. If the engineers had any real brains, they would have put in a PAIR of posts. One set is always flush but comes up behind the bus as it waits for the first set. My opinion of French and English engineers is now vastly lower, and for once I'm actually happy we have the civil liability laws we do here.
If you watch closely you'll see how these people speed up before they crash. They know its going up they just want to be able to ride after the bus and get past it.
I would love these to be in the UK. It would then free up the bus lanes for the people they were designed for, emergency services, motorcycles, bicyclists and buses....
haha, didnt they see signs saying that bus only? i saw pair of thoses in cambridge once, there are clearly signs saying Bus only. if they crash their on vehicle then, too bad for them
I would love to sit at one of these things and see how many people try to do it in a day. The Black SUV really took it bad, the back wheels had to have been 2-3 feet off the ground.
They aren't americans. Look at where the steering wheel is. It's on the right side of the car. In america, we have it on the left. Typical anti-american...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
A. The third car in the video had the steering wheel on the left.
B. Americans in a foreign country don't rent american cars, they rent foreign cars, with the steering wheel on the appropriate side. Just by virtue of being an american the steering wheel doesn't magically appear on the other side of the car.
WTF's a Limey? You know that every sailor used Limes to get Vitamin C on a boat in the 19th Century, even in your shithole country of America, so don't tar everyone in the UK with a brush for the world dickhead.

Stupidity is hilarious i wonder if u timed just right if u could make it or like tailgate the bus really close. Dunno if any one does post it as a video response cause beating the system is awesome.
No, there are place that have similar systems in the US but mostly they are used for high security stuff and not bus lanes. At the Y-12 plant in Oak Ridge they have one but it isn't nice enough to stop if there is a vehicle it hits. It will completely lift a car off the ground.
those people look like they realy got hurt. The last one smashed his head into the windsheild and broke it. I feel bad for that kid in the second one.
At least in the USA such devices could be called "attractive nuisances" by the court system. The bus shortcut with the raising poles entices people to take dangerous risks. One of the previous posters was right, such devices would get sued out of existence in the USA.
