Hi 27vet,
This happens far too often in Southern Africa. With the powerful head light on the train, the driver must have known it was coming. He won't be the first to have fled the scene, nor will he be the last. Everyone who drives in South Africa knows that the law is for motor vehicles to stop at any level crossing. The last time I was in S.A. (last September), I twice saw a mini cab go flying across a level crossing without stopping. At one of the crossings a train was approaching but that would have held up the driver of the cab, so, NO STOP.
