Seconds from tragedy. The tanker got stuck on the tracks, the barriers closed.

A driver of a tanker truck narrowly escaped a train collision at a railway crossing in Poznań after getting stuck due to traffic. The incident occurred on Monday afternoon when the driver, a 31-year-old Ukrainian, entered the crossing as barriers closed behind him. He managed to leave the tracks just seconds before the train arrived, causing minor damage to the barriers. The driver later reported to the police, admitting his fault and explaining he believed he could cross before the barriers closed. His driving license was revoked, and he faces legal consequences, including potential fines and community service.
