only right, how many of these accidents are gonna happen before motorists get the message and pay attention to using level crossing propley. When used propley they are perfectly safe, when misused they are highly dangerous full stop!

Not so long ago, I saw an Ambulance being driven across a Full barriered crossing as the Red aspect lights flashed and siren sounded, just as the barriers started lowering, but NOT on an Emergency call.

They had time to stop, but failed to opbey the lights, by driving in the middle of the road.

ANYBODY abusing these lights, should be given an Automatic £500 fine.
