It is not the guard job to direct traffic. It also is not a gate problem if someone is in the next lane. Picture a toll road before ez pass ; many lanes of traffic, each with their own gate all merging onto one large entrance ramp with each car performing merging maneuvers This is basically what we have with any gate inTV, the same thing only on a small scale. We need to perform merging maneuvers. When you are pulling up to any gate you should be able to see if there is another car in the other lane, is there? Then you gotta figure that they’re going to drive thru at some point. Don’t collide with them.
