Something we never like to see. My bud "Crusty" was in the left hand seat in this video. I am grateful that my good friend did not get that Prius in his damn lap.
Apparently, the driver did not know the limitations of his low slung auto rack and got wedged tight as glue to the downward slope on the down side of the train embankment. Looks like that little push knocked him loose.
Lucky days, no one hurt, especially the train crew, who were face level with that automobile. What is almost funny, is that the owner of the auto carrier happened to be on site, tried to flag down the train, and then cussed Crusty and the conductor "for not stopping in time." I guess the fellow never saw a safety film about crossing hazards and train stopping ability.
