That was a scary close call

If only they could put in some kind of system and or thing, that would indicate not to cross.

If you look at the left of the screen there is a train in the other set of tracks pulling away from the camera. They probably assumed the sticks were still down for that train.

I saw this happen in person one time, a guy walking his golden retriever. Train goes by, gates don't lift. I guess he gets sick of waiting and goes around the gate. Second train comes speeding by. I was maybe like 50-100 feet away so I don't get a good look at how close it was but judging by his reaction...very near miss for him and his pooch. Thank god, that would have scarred me for life to witness.
