Looks like the gate came down aft of the truck and he could not back up because his trailer would have been in the roadway and the truck would have sheared off the gate? He's lucky he's alive. 9 lives minus 1 = 8 lives remaining.

I see trains occasionally and they are deceptive on how fast they are approaching you when you see them face on. One moment they are 100 yards away and the next moment they are right on top of you and they are big, heavy and moving fast.
