I have done this at least 50 times at various gates in the villages and have never yet even come close to having a problem or hitting the bar. Stay alert and I'm waiting for some **** **** someday to stop as soon as he gets through the gate, but of course the sensors will sense that he is there and not lower the gate. One could question the legality of having these gates on a public road, but that's another topic. For those of you who don't have good reactions, I definitely don't recommend this activity otherwise do your bit to save the planet.
Oh good, this will turn into a global warming discussion.
