Im talking about how to tag the barrier. That thing was **tight** and very unusual to find in a major urban area.
The amount of scars on the poles was amazing. The hight restriction barrier (a common thing) is tagged along with maxheight - this barrier seemed to be the same - if you are over max you will hit and severely damage your vehecle on the barrier - not the bridge or overpass or whatever.
