Unless the problem was caused by the first accident somehow. Maybe something was damaged as the car was dragged along the tracks.

Interesting. I don't often drive this route, but I always thought that the traffic lights were in sync with the flashing lights for the train there. Having both green and flashing red lights at the same intersection doesn't seem very safe to me.
