Not as secure as you might think....

Was in the tight college carpark and to stop people parking on the grass they put up these security posts, now as defenders go the turning circle isnt great, after being blocked into my space i was doing a million point turn then i heard a bang...as security posts go i wouldnt trust one of these to stop some pikey knocking your fender...you have been warned

AUTOPA Secure Parking Post / Collapsable Bollard | eBay

They are just little bollards to stop people parking in private bays or to try and stop students parking on the grass!!! The bollards that people tend to install for security often have about 3 foot of steel below the ground set into a block of concrete.

What bit hit the bollard?

Them automatic raising ones on bus only routes will stop a 40 ton truck dead in its tracks and still retract. I saw it tested on the TV once. Bloody awesome. The truck was none to pretty though.
