What Would You Do?

An MBTA commuter rail train collided with a tractor trailer in Canton, MA. Luckily, the truck driver is okay. It appears the truck got stuck behind the railroad crossing gate on one side of the road and on the track. Instead of driving through the other gate on the opposite side of the tracks, the driver decided to vacate the vehicle, abandoning it on the tracks. What would you do in this situation if your vehicle were stuck between barriers on a railroad track? Would you do the same thing as the driver and abandon the vehicle, drive through the opposing gate or something else?
