While we're at it, you also sometimes find barriers on car park exits
which have fierce, curved, spring-loaded spikes which are pushed into
the ground if you drive over them in the intended direction, but which
would rip your tyres to shreds if you attempted to go in against the
flow. Like a fixed stinger. Any ideas for barrier=? I've found them
referred to on manufacturer sites as 'alligator teeth' and 'traffic
spikes'
That sounds like what they (apparently) have in the customs sheds in
Dover harbour. There are signs warning of the "catsclaw" - red triangle,
white background, with a group of black markings that remind me of
sharks fins: slightly curvy triangles leaning to one side.
I say apparently, as the signs have been there for years but I can
recall actually seeing the devices in question.
So how about barrier=catsclaw? A quick google yielded this:
