Imaging driving 50-60 mile and hour into a huge metal popup barrier that didn't move at all and likely didn't even receive as much as a scratch from the impact.

Ever bump your head on a door in the night ? You were moving at less than 2 miles an hour.

Soldier or terrorist? I notice they are sharing zero info on the dead driver.

I walked right into the edge of one one night. It knocked me out cold and I passed out a couple more times trying to get back to bed.

The outcome with this barrier seems acceptable though.

The barrier worked as designed.

Must not have had his seat belt on.
In Saudi I let the lieutenant drive. 70 mph into a light pole. In Saudi they are not breakaway. Instant stop. Caught my sunglasses as they flew off my face. Hobbled away with a sprained ankle.

Yeah, that seems like a bad idea...for at least a couple of reasons

“IA drunk sailor trying to evade base police if I recall correctly.”

Civilian low life speeding wrong way into exit lane rams sailor’s vehicle.

No, that was a different case altogether, that happened at Ft.Story , which a smaller base down the road from the LittleCreek base. Ft. Story did not have the barricade system at that time

The sailor I was referring to was speeding,on base, fled from the cops and they deployed the barrier as he tried to leave the base.,

He swerved and crashed into the gas pump at the Mini Mart gas station, he then fled and was shot and killed by police after they struggled and he tried to grab their weapon.

Navy identifies sailor shot, killed after chase, crash on Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story
