I don't know what all the fuss is about. It happened, I didn't freak out but saw the humor in it. I'm very aware of what it's like to deal with the public, which is why I didn't freak out. I certainly didn't think she was going to take the time to make an issue of it. Holding up your magic key should be enough to get one through, it is a public road. It would have taken more time for me undo my seat belt, put the car in park, walk back to the box, push the button, walk back to my car, put my seat belt back on, release the emergency break and put it in drive. She had her hand on the button so it seemed like an easy enough thing to do. It's not her job to chastise me. It's her job to keep traffic flowing in a safe manner and to give the impression that we are a gated community to act as a deterrent to crime.
