Abstract

At least one modular vehicular barrier includes an angle connector bracket, a first barrier arm, a second barrier arm, and a fastening mechanism. The first barrier arm is positioned in between a left plate and a right plate of the angled connector bracket as a proximal end of the first barrier arm is connected to the left and right plates. The second barrier arm is perimetrically positioned in between a front plate, a rear plate, the left plate, and the right plate of the angled connector bracket as a proximal end of the second barrier arm is removably mounted to the left and right plates through the fastening mechanism. The first barrier arm and the second barrier arm are positioned at an obtuse angle so that the modular vehicular barrier is able to lift and disable a motor vehicle, when the motor vehicle attempts to drive through.
