= Ram raid deterrents =

There are several tactics that can be used to protect against ram raids.

Bollards. Bollards can be used to prevent ram raiding and other forms of vehicle ramming attacks (such as those associated with acts of terrorism associated with suicide bombings).

Electronic barriers. These devices can also be activated in order to deter ram raid activities.

Security guards. Physical security guards can’t stop a ram raid from happening, but they may serve as enough of a deterrent to keep burglars from planning an intrusion.

CCTV. Like security guards, CCTV won’t stop a ram raid, but they may also discourage burglars from organising such an attack, since they could provide evidence that might help police identify the perpetrators.
