I don't believe the gates are a joke. I believe we have too many jokers playing jokes with the gates.
As Bogie aptly pointed out this topic is as common as the ones on dog poop.
The gates and their attendant serve the community well. The public roads and the virtual size of this community make it impractical to have a bona fide gated community. However the gates still help control traffic and the elaborate camera system assists an added security measure.
i often utilize the Morse gate and it would just be maddening without the gates.
In Minneapolis they use metered lanes and they serve well in merging traffic onto the interstate system;otherwise there would be backups from those drivers that believe they are always entitled to go first.
