Some drivers try and rush a toll booth that’s already raised by the car in front of the in order to avoid paying. However, this practice creates some very bad and potentially dangerous practices.
That’s because while toll booth bars have scanners or an operator to stop you from being guillotined, not everything is the same. Case in point these bollards that are used in historic centers of European cities only allow supply vehicles that have a certain access card on them to pass.
So if you place a car, say a smart fortwo with a Brabus kit on it, over the top of one of these, it will lift completely with no regard for what on top, and they are designed to stop a truck, so a small car like this is not a problem. Thankfully, it’s a smooth and slow process, which means the smart didn’t take too much damage, but still very humiliating.
