Level Crossing Near Misses

But hey! they are motorists and are entitled to get to their destination as quickly as they want. At least I think that's what it says in their version of the Highway Code.

Have you ever seen the Greeks drive?? They dont drive, they race. Thats what they tell me.

The have to be first to the RED light. Then there is the joke... what is the smallest time known to man. The time between the red light changing and a greek hitting his horn. Its unbelevable. Complete madness.

Living next to a level crossing, I have seen dozens of occasions when the crossing gates fail in the DOWN position and motorists seem to imagine it's perfectly safe to ignore the flashing red lights and zig zag through the gates.

But hey! they are motorists and are entitled to get to their destination as quickly as they want. At least I think that's what it says in their version of the Highway Code.

If it's the half barriers your talking about then drivers are even bigger twats for zig zagging those because we've got no control over them, They're what they say "Automatic Half Barriers" By the time those things hit the ground the train is only seconds away and I cant stop them.
