Iver Child Bollards

The title of this post ought not to make any sense.

But it does.
That is an Iver Child Bollard.  They don't look much less scary during daylight hours:
They have been placed outside Primary and Junior schools in the Buckinghamshire town of Iver to deter bad driving and people parking on the kerbs.  The Telegraph reported it here and the BBC have a short video about them here.
 
I'll bet a few of the pupils at these schools have nightmares after seeing them.
 
I think it is the soulless expression staring out, judging anyone who dares to drive a car in their vicinity.
Perhaps even more scary is the cost - they seem to be £5,395 plus installation.  Each!
 
Still, I look forward to seeing them feature in a Doctor Who storyline in the next couple of years.
