Many gates used to be set up just that way, but they were in violation of federal law. There used to be room for carts to drive by the end of the gate arm. But the arms had to be extended. Now, only bikes can squeeze by. I think they cut off the damaged end and reattach the arm, so some are shorter than others, but still prevent carts from passing through.
