This van is stationary and has a line of stationary cars in front of it. And if you look carefully you might notice exactly where it is.
Yes, that's right. The driver has managed to stop on a level crossing. Not the safest place in the world to be.
Did a train come along and make the earth move for the van driver? I'm not sure if I should say, "No thank god." or "No, what a shame." But no train arrived.
On to an other little problem that we have down here in the South West. The Napoli. Two days ago it was refloated. Had we seen the last of it? No, sorry. When it was half a mile out to sea it was decided that it was too badly damaged and it came back like the oily bad penny it is.

Thats just outrageous!
What an idiot. Maybe you should forward this to the company, you can see the Reg.
Its amazing how many people invade the 'box' wether it be in a dangerous place, like there! or even like I see all the time outside the firestation.
I'm not amazed any more - I've been waiting at our local station and seen drivers parked on the lines (and look very worried as the gates descend - it's a manned crossing).
Other drivers try and beat the descending barriers (full width) - some don't make it.
And just a few are OK (me included;-)).
And this is in Berkshire - where we've had some nasty level crossing collisions (not accidents)...
