Driver uninjured after train crashes into van at level crossing in Poland

A dramatic collision between a train and a van was captured on video at a level crossing in a Polish village.

The footage, released by Malopolska Police on Wednesday, shows a white van arriving at the crossing in Wola Filipowska as the rail gate closes. The trapped van reverses and then moves forward onto the tracks just as a train approaches.

The train crashed into the van, pushing it along the tracks before continuing on its journey.

Malopolska Police confirmed that the van's driver escaped the accident without injuries.
