What's the Security check point for?

 

[Kirby]

Don't know exactly, but that type of checkpoint is used in Europe. I have seen the stone or metal columns that retract/extend out of the ground in a few cities in Italy - Genoa & Bologna for example. They are common in the "old town" narrow street areas where they want to restrict driving to residents only.

Awesome, we could use those here for red light violators!

Wish we had some of those here in California especially in Frisco and LA
