Do you put up any posts or beams to stop them?

We thought about it, but we were afraid we would get stuck vehicles in our drive.

A guy I know was having his mailbox flatten on a regular basis.Never could catch to drivers.

He ended up building a heavy duty mailbox. Poured a 18 inch square concrete pillar,reinforced with rebarb (sp) 2 feet deep. Box was perched on top.

His idea was to disable whatever hits it.

It works. Has found several cars totaled next to it.
