Another accident at North Sheen level crossing

Another proof that a level crossing has no place in a dense urban setting.
A vehicle smashed a barrier at the level crossing on Manor road. The barrier was lying on the pavement tonight (on the right on the picture) and all traffic was interrupted -including for pedestrians as there's no footbridge to the South side of Manor road (see posts below).
At the time of writing, three police patrol cars and a Network Rail engineer were on site.
This is the second incident in a week, as I saw the police at the same place on Monday apparently carrying checks for motorists running through the crossing lights...
