Gut-churning footage released by police showed the moment a pair of idiotic moped riders came within a split second of death at a level crossing.
The video showed the two people riding on one motor scooter come within centimetres of a speeding train in what British Transport Police (BTP) called, the “most shocking” incident of its type it had ever seen.
The footage, shot by a security camera, showed the moped driver swerve around a lowered safety barrier and enter the level crossing with his passenger clinging on behind.
