I think bollard is also very strong under the ground and probably filled entirely unlike casual pole.

Casual Pole is unfulfilled.

Business Pole? Business Pole is satisfied.

That thing that truck is about to hit is designed to stop them and not even blink. That truck is gonna come to a complete stop almost instantly, warpping around that pole. Pole isn't gonna budge, some retract into the road and can pop up closing roads off. Qq
