I think the only other reason is impatience and some drivers think they can sneak through the gate no matter what the sign says. This gate will close after every vehicle. DUH!!!

God forbid someone has to wait for 3 cars have to go through the gate, before them. A real traffic jam!!!
I saw a cart race behind a car at the gate at pinellas plaza....almost didn't make it.....I'm glad he did since I was the next car in line
