A Close Encounter
Patience isn't a common virtue among Chinese motorists and traffic jams frequently occur in the middle of level crossings. While the drivers of trikes and bikes tried to squeeze past each other, the owner of the red car could only sit and wait as SY 1523 bore down on his vehicle at a slow but steady pace. With seconds to spare, the jam cleared and one car driver narrowly escaped getting a knuckle coupler through his window.
