ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a bollard made of an elongate member having a lower proximal end biasedly attachable in an upright position to a path surface, an upper distal end, and a longitudinal axis. A collar is attached to the elongate member about its upper distal end. The collar is rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the elongate member. When such bollard is mounted on or adjacent a path surface, the bollard is deflectable from its upright position about its proximal end, e.g., when contacted by a vehicle. The collar rotates when in contact with the vehicle for following the contour of the vehicle without damaging the vehicle. Specific bollard configurations are disclosed herein along with numerous attachments with which the inventive bollard can be outfitted.
