Thats really sad!
and scary too. Me and my sister were driving one time and being silly. We had the music up really loud and drove straight over the train tracks without realising the lights were going off. We looked back straight away cause we were like "oh sh*t the lights were going!" and the train went past. That could have been us  ------------- Melanie. Mum to Briahna Robyn, 3yrs |

Turns out they weren't racing, everyone just assumed that. The police released a statement saying they weren't speeding, and that they possibly just didn't brake in time or didn't see the lights.
Very sad indeed. A friend of mine nearly died last year when he left from the crossing after a train went past, but he didn't see another train coming the other way. |
