I've seen that clip before on another messageboard. There is a bollard like that on the college campus across the road from where I work. It retracts for the buses but not for anyone else. One of the girls who helps at the after-school club my children use had her car wrecked when the bollard came up . It took out her oil sump and stuff.

These clips reminds me of the Mr Bean (Rowan Atkinson) episode when he tries to drive his mini car through a barrier at a car park.

I didn't know there were such things. Don't these drivers know about them or are they trying to sneak in behind the bus?

No, mere mortals don't get them! ;D I think it's just the garbage men and the emergency services.
