Re: Crossing Gate Contact
A gate lands on a truck here, and promptly gets twisted. Then the crossing starts tail-ring malfunctioning multiple times until engineers fix the problem.
Though not sure why that is enough to trigger a malfunction like that, how exactly?

Re: Crossing Gate Contact
A crossing gate lands on this oblivious driver's car, who also happens to be recording.
Yes, you can't see the gate drop onto his car, but the bump you hear is the sound of the gate hitting his truck.

Double-edged sword there. The truck driver could have started reversing immediately when he realized that the car went around him, and he probably would have had enough time to be behind the gate.NathanFromEngland wrote: ↑Fri Oct 11, 2019 11:28 amA crossing gate lands on this oblivious driver's car, who also happens to be recording.

Re: Crossing Gate Contact
Careless driver decides to just drive on through the gate as soon as the train passed, though thankfully no serious damage considering the car is a small sedan.

Re: Crossing Gate Contact
A crossing gate lands on a car and the van that is stuck on the crossing is sideswiped by a train, which takes out a crossing gate. (10:11)
EDIT: Found this while browsing BBC News earlier today, the video can be watched here.

Re: Crossing Gate Contact
A van breaks through a crossing gate in Turkey, moments before it's struck by a train.
I also noticed the crossing has a NEG E-Bell and Safetran Type 3!
