Here's a few in this news report. (Also includes many people being idiots around crossings!)

Fourth post in a row! In 2011, there was this accident at the Springvale crossing. Not only was the entire gate knock off the gate mech, but the entire mast which held it got taken out!

The gates get hit at about 1:10.
