It's not supposed to 'deter terrorism' as a concept. It's just supposed to protect King's Parade specifically, which to be fair is a prime target if anyone wanted to attack Cambridge with a lorry: straight road, usually an insane number of tourists and locals all over the road, there would definitely be quite a few dead, right in the heart of old Cambridge. That being said, it's not like this is the only road in Cambridge that could be a target.

But when a driver "blacks out" and kills a bunch of people... even though he knew of his black out problems... no charges and oh he's fucking at it again... https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/mar/31/glasgow-bin-lorry-death-crash-driver-avoids-jail-for-new-incident
There's more of these pricks around than terrorist drivers.

How is this supposed to deter terrorism? (Genuinely interested if dubious)
