Hi I've just got my car but my drive is to small I can't shut the gates. I needed the drive to be able to charge as it's all electric, all so my daughter who would be using the vehicle to do my shopping and take me out if I'm not safe to drive especially if it's taking me out of comfort zone, not sure what I can do .

Is it vital that the gates are shut? I see many people with drives and no gates.

Well my be not but after spending good money on double farm gates plus single gate with 5" post , anyway after a lot of shunting I did manage to get my gates shut , but it took ages I still think I made the wrong move, I love my car, but I find it very painful sat behind the wheel for a length of time, that's the reason I need my daughter to do 90% of the driving, after a hour sat in that position I end up in bed for days, also im on 180mg a day of gabapentin just for my pain.
