An oldie apparently, but what could’ve happened here? I can’t see any crossing nearby.

Oh, you have to scroll down a bit to see it.

No idea how that happened! It looks impossible, maybe its phony?

The one with the warning sign gets me. What an insult, first if you touch the wire you die instantly, then they fine you $200. That’s just wrong!

I seem to remember seeing this before- I think the driver, for whatever reason (sleeping?) went through a tee intersection between two highways, across the gap between there and the tracks, and up the embankment.

It looks to me like there is a road to the right and the truck backed (or maybe skidded?) across the tracks and off the edge.

When I saw this before there were several photos, including his lengthy path through a field to get where he was.

Wrong thread[s], maybe, and an old, old, joke, but here goes;

‘Why did you finally stop [Q]’

'Oh, I realized none of the roads were as smooth as this field was . . . ’ [swg]
