It does seem more than a little careless of her. But why would the security guy walk off and leave a moving gate unattended. I would think part of his job is to prevent this kind of thing.

You guys don't know the full detail of the lady so don't be so quick to judge. This was on the news and apparently that lady was deaf and have very poor vision...

Heavy hydraulic gates require compulsory warning labels, right?
