Driving as shown in the clips on TV News should aytomatically lead to a charge of Dangerous Driving. I believe that conviction on this charge can lead to a prison sentance and a driving ban!
Best wishes, John H-T.

Are the drivers of cars thinking they are being clever, or are they wanting a bit of excitement?
Foot passengers are the same, have they got a screw loose? I would give car drivers a life sentence, if you can catch them? How about having a system whereby automatic bollards installed, like the ones you see in limited access roads in town centres, these could be controlled by a Signal Box attached to a CCTV Camera as part of the Crossing Gates control. If a train is approaching, then the bollards would be raised and no traffic could get through, provisions would have to be made for the Emergency Services.
