ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a transportable device for non-destructively impeding the motion of a land vehicle travelling along a pathway. First and second telescoping devices located on either side of the pathway support a barrier. When the telescoping supports are compressed, the vehicles pass over the barrier unimpeded. When the telescoping supports are extended, the barrier impedes the motion of a land vehicle. At least one deceleration cable mechanically couples the barrier to a braking system. The braking system applies a continuous deceleration force to the vehicle of typically less than 2 g, bringing the vehicle to a stop without damaging either the vehicle or vehicle occupants.
