Aggressive Speed Bumps ??? That's all we need for our aching, bad backs. It's really a "no brainer". We all know that the gates are there, and we all know that we need to stop or at least, really slow down. The problem isn't the gates, it's the drivers. They are not paying attention, they are drunk, or just plain stupid.
Perhaps a good remedy would be to place a heavy, solid gate (maybe a telephone pole) across the road so that when someone does hit it, it will do good damage to their windshield. That way, they will remember that the gate IS there the next time they go through.
