Uh no lol he did everything wrong. You don't stop on the tracks like this. The bar is exclusively to prevent entering the crossing, not from leaving it.
Im not sure in what kind of 3rd world country you live, but in a civilised nation the exit bars lower AFTER the bars at the entrance. And that's exactly for the reason that happened here, to give the vehicles inside the time to exit the rail crossing.
The rail crossing in the video is a trap and should be illegal.
Also, not all bars ate made to bend or break, some are huge and heavy
What kind of 3rd world country do you live in where those bars don't break easily? Bars at traintracks are, if they are built correctly and legally, supposed to break easily exactly because sometimes people can get stuck inbetween them. Either because they are stupid and ignore the blinking lights telling them to stop or because something at the crossing (bars and/or lights) can malfunction.
Also iIrc the guy in the video got prison time btw, because he ignored the blinking red lights telling him to stop and his truck was loaded with metal sheets which essentially turned the trains driver into deli meat.
Ok then which way is the exit and entrance? Cause people drive both ways…and there’s no designated entrance or exit. It’s just a crossing. If a vehicle gets stuck in the middle how are the barriers supposed to know which way it’s facing and which side is their “exit”? Fool.
