On August 20, a video was shared on social media recording the scene of a car moving to a section with a railway crossing, when the train barrier was automatically lifted. Suddenly, the train arrived, luckily the driver observed and stopped the train in time.
Investigation shows that the incident occurred at nearly 9:00 p.m. on August 19 on Nguyen Huu Khieu Street (Nam Dong Ha Ward, Quang Tri Province).
Mr. T.C - the person who shared the video said he posted the video to get everyone's attention because it was very dangerous. "Automatically raising the train barrier when the train has not yet passed is like a trap in the middle of the road" - Mr. T.C said.
Talking to Lao Dong Newspaper, an officer of the Dong Ha railway signal information service said that he had received the above information. On the morning of August 20, this unit sent staff to the train barrier location to check and handle the situation.
