@ I'm not saying this dude was some genius. I'm just saying it's not as if he just decided to go stop on the tracks...

After a few minutes, the car backed up and tried to go over the crossing. It couldn’t so it backed up and slid around for a few more minutes. It finally went back over the crossing and that is when this clip starts. If anything, the cop should not have let it come to this point.
