충격적인 비디오는 뉴질랜드 북섬에서 기차와 자동차 충돌을 보여주었습니다.키위레일 (KiwiRail) 이 공개한 영상에는 자동차가 선로를 향해 속도를 내다가 마주 오는 열차와 충돌하는 장면이 담겨있다.운전자는 충돌 직전에 경적을 울리고 소리를 질렀지만 멈출 수 없었습니다.

키위레일 (KiwiRail) 의 데이비드 고든 (David Gordon) 씨는 이 비디오가 사람들에게 기차 건널목에서 조심해야 한다는 것을 상기시키기 위한 것이라고 말했다.다행히 이 사고로 사망한 사람은 없었지만, 이러한 긴밀한 통화는 열차 운전자와 관련된 사람들에게 심각한 영향을 미칠 수 있습니다.

이 비디오는 철도 안전 주간과 사람들이 건널목에서 열차를 조심할 것을 촉구하는 Steely Stare 캠페인의 시작을 기념하여 공유되었습니다.Gordon은 충돌 사고의 95% 와 아차사고의 73% 가 점멸등과 차단용 암이 설치된 건널목에서 발생했다며 우려를 표명했습니다.

TrackSafe의 메간 드레이튼 매니저는 열차는 멈추기가 매우 어렵다고 경고했습니다.그들은 통행이 적절하고 생각보다 빠르게 움직입니다.열차 운전사는 경적을 울리고 비상 브레이크를 밟을 수는 있지만 충돌을 막을 수 있는 경우는 거의 없습니다.

6월 30일까지 한 해 동안 건널목에서 19건의 열차 충돌이 발생했고 173건의 아차사고가 발생했습니다.이러한 사고의 대부분은 안전 신호가 설치된 횡단보도에서 발생했습니다.지난 10년 동안 열차 충돌로 170명 이상이 사망했습니다.
