Being near train tracks can be somewhat annoying for individuals in Texas.

For some, they can get through train tracks with not having to wait for passing train. Or, they may go over the tracks before a passing train comes through. But some of us simply get stuck behind the crossing signs.

It always happens at a time when we really need to get somewhere right? We've got an appointment to make, or someone is waiting on us. Whatever the situation, it's one we don't like being in.

However, the one thing someone shouldn't do is attempt to cross when the lights and railroad crossings are blocking the tracks. Otherwise, you put yourself and others in danger of being harmed like one driver did in Texas.

Driver In Texas Nearly Hit By Oncoming Train

In a video posted to Tik Tok, a driver captured a scary video of an individual nearly losing their vehicle and potentially their life:

As shown in the video, another driver sounds their horn to alert the unidentified driver to move their vehicle. In addition, the train is also using their horn to get the driver's attention. The car begins to move, with the tractor attached as well.

Both thankfully and unfortunately, the driver is able to move their car out of the train's way, but the tractor was hit by the train. Where the tractor landed is not shown in the video. In the end, the driver only lost their tractor, and not their car.

Remember to not try and cross when trains are crossing tracks!
