It doesn't pay to be impatient ...

Got this video from MSN Autos site. Seems the Europeans have a different way of ensuring that vehicles don't go around the blocking arms at railroad crossings. However, they can be defeated by narrow single track vehicles - like motorcycles, for instance. Either this biker wasn't used to this type of crossing or he was drunk or just plain stupid. According to reports he was unhurt. You'll have to paste the link into the address field as I couldn't get it to come up as a usable link.

It's guys like these that help keep down the population numbers and prove Darwin's theory.
