Abstract: A mobile vehicle barrier includes a base portion and an upward-extending portion. The center of gravity of the mobile vehicle barrier is located in the upward-extending portion. Moreover, the upward-extending portion is spaced apart from a longitudinal edge of the base portion. This way, when a vehicle drives onto the vehicle barrier, the vehicle barrier may be tipped over in the direction of movement of the vehicle, and the vehicle jacks itself up on the tipped-over vehicle barrier.
