      it looks like it bent the bollards over,

      So they weren’t bollards, they were decoration.

        Ah yeah true, they were railings not bollards, but they look like they were solid steel, so I don’t think it’s fair to just call them “decoration”.

          As someone working in the field of bollards: If they arent rated to stop a hostile vehicle, they are just decoration.
