A driver has been jailed for a year and banned from driving for three after he avoided being hit by an oncoming train by “one second”.
Footage released by the British Transport Police (BTP) reveals the terrifying moment Giedrius Puisys, 38, misses being hit by the 1,600-tonne freight train by a whisker.
Puisys, from Ipswich, has been handed a 12-month prison sentence and a three-year driving ban at Ipswich Crown Court.
The reckless driver gets out of his black Citroen Xsar to lift the barriers at the Routs level crossing on Felixstowe Road, near Ipswich.
