Magic Button

25 Mar

While walking back to the office from lunch one day, an observant colleague noticed this strange box next to the pavement. Can anyone guess what the button on this box does? Some clues:

  • The box is hidden beneath some bushes.
  • The bushes are right outside a huge government building facing the main road.
  • There are 3 flag poles next to the box.
  • There is a pedestrian crossing a few metres away.

For lack of a better name… “Magic” Button!

ANSWER: It’s an automatic gate opener! Who would’ve guessed. :P
