Passenger Train Hits a Semi-trailer Truck Parked at Level Crossing
Netherlands, ProRail is pressing charges against a man who parked his semi-trailer truck on a level crossing in Leeuwarden last week Friday, after which an Arriva passenger train collided with it. Six people sustained minor injuries in the accident, including the train driver and the truck driver. The accident also disrupted train traffic and resulted in the entire level crossing installation needing to be replaced. The accident happened at FrieslandCampina's business park. According to police, the trucker was looking for directions. He parked his truck at the level crossing and got out. The train crashed straight through the truck, separating truck and trailer and creating a cloud of milk powder, which the truck was transporting. The dumb mothertrucker was from the Czech Republic. |

You can see the driver run to the truck & open the door and jumps in. He had time to release the brakes and drive away, unless I'm missing something.
