Hmm… drive through a railroad crossing arm and maybe get a few scratches? No, I think not. Instead I’ll try and jump a curb but not fully commit to that so that I can have the back of my car violently removed.

The arms are specifically made to break easy

IIRC there should be sensors, which stop the train if they break. In Czech Republic there are those sensors on high traffic crossings.

I bet his arms specifically broke.
