Pay close attention to the white sedan that enters the picture at the 1:05 mark. Not only does she cross in front of the train twice (the second time waayyy to close)... she goes down the road next to the track the wrong way!
By the way, the 3rd crossing from the camera has been discussed on this forum before. It does not have any backrounds on the sidelights.
Stupid driver(s)!

Re: Stupid driver(s)!
That is a spectacular display of the idiotic drivers around these days.
I wonder if he/she was drunk...
Here's another one that's not as stupid, but a little odd.
A BNSF crossing in Lincoln, NE, with wayside horns that aren't quite in sync, and a driver is sandwiched between the tracks and the lowered gate. (The road crosses at an angle.)
The driver does back up until the rear is virtually under the gate, and does wait until the gates begin to rise before crossing.
IMO, that driver did what you should do if you find yourself in a situation like that.
Here's another good example of that situation:
