Work is to be carried out to make level crossings safer after 33 near misses and two crashes in Wales in the past year.
Network Rail will be building footbridges, adding new barriers and using more modern technology.
It is also closing some level crossings and appointing managers at nine.
CCTV captured this near miss by a driver on a level crossing in Llangadog, Carmarthenshire.

Nice swerve

One more coat of paint and he would have been hit!

For once, it's not the driver's fault: The warning lights facing him were not functioning, as evidenced in both views of the video. And many of the boomless crossings don't have bells either, so it's pretty sloppy maintenance there possibly costing lives.

Sure makes you think about those crossings!

bell, redlights and barriers should be standard, esp. when a train crosses a major road like this one.
can't rely on just one of the three in case of malfunction.
