There may be a battery there that kicks in for half an hour or so, but every time I've come home and I see all the gates open, I know the power's out
Sadly, only a few of the police cars have passes cards. I had to let one in one morning about 2AM. I hope it wasn't a REAL emergency......though it came in handy when my son totaled my car a few months later and I reminded the guy when I asked him not to give the kid a ticket
There was a house on fire about a year ago and I remember watching people having to wave their passes in front of the control panel to get the fire trucks in.
We stopped having a guard 24/7 about 2 years ago and I guess someone's going to have to die before they realize it's worth the $24K a year to man the booth at nights.
