Re: Satnav problems on Sunday night

"Brimstone" <brimstone520-ng04@xxxxxxxxxxx> gurgled happily, sounding much
like they were saying:

Don't these kind of crossings have instructions to open both gates
before proceeding?

IIRC they do. But you would have thought the red circle on the gate and
that the gate was on a public road would have been a clue that this was
in some way different and that a closer look was needed.

This had nothing to do with the sat-nav at all, she failed to take note
of what was around her after getting out of the car.

Quite. SatNav or not, basic common sense says you spend as little time
blocking the railway as humanly possible - and that means not parking on
it whilst you fanny around with gates...

Mind you, when you look at the fake-tanned chav slapper, you wonder
whether the train wasn't actually trying to do the human race a favour.
