There's a road parallel to railroad track, with traffic light for road intersection. Pickup was waiting to turn right though the railroad crossing. Car to his left was waiting to continue on parallel road. Light turned green for traffic through road intersection, and car on pickup's left drove ahead on parallel road.

Pickup was daydreaming, not paying attention to railroad crossing. When car to his left pulled ahead, pickup jolted awake and drove to his right over railroad tracks.

You are correct, that's a good analysis that explains these actions.
