The video showed the railroad crossing gates partially lowered, unable to move past the cars on the upper deck of the double-decker car hauler trailer. The train's horn blared before the locomotive collided with the trailer, sending debris on both sides of the crossing. "This train was canceled north of the incident scene and northbound customers were provided substitute transportation," Amtrak said in a statement.

Accidents are accidents!

Dumb Ares truck drivers

I strongly recommend that the truck driver come to a stop after it has cleared the tracks, and not while still on them. Your welcome.

Car hauler trailers set too low to the ground and are constantly getting stuck. The federal government needs to require the trailers to set higher or require wheels at the front end of the trailers.

When did this actually happen?

綺麗に裂けるもんやね

Pete?

mercy 😥😥😥

horrible

I don't know why that person got out their car for?🤷 And moved closer

Didn't the truck driver see the train or was it stuck on the tracks or did he fall asleep behind the wheel? An accident that never should had to happen.

What…how did this happen?!

Oh my goodness!!!

😬😵🤯

Be careful out there people jeeze dont need MORE MANDATES from our leaders

Her windshield is cracked

About time we invest in our infrastructure. Why can’t a simple electronic signal installed to alert the train and authorities?

Where in the world do they find these drivers! Your pullin a lowboy car hauler why in the heck would you even try a bump in the road like that and RR crossing at that! They'll give a CDL to anyone it seems!

Dang ‼️ they really didn’t see that train coming 🤦‍♀️

Why didn't that person just back off the tracks?

Is there anyone in the semi? (Couldn't see anyone). Why didn't the driver back up? No one behind them Looks hella intentional
