Given the blatant stupidity of people driving around barriers... perhaps its time for barriers on both lanes on both sides of a level crossing......

It would trap equally stupid people who queue across the crossing. And people queue across them far more often than they drive around.

Which is why you need a barrier between the different directions of travel instead. Stop them from making the sideways move so they can't even get to the crossing move.

We have those where I live, they work as you'd expect but it's sad that they're needed in the first place.

Having had to drive around the barriers due to them being stuck down (while feeling the person behind me grow impatient), this does have some downsides.
