In a video clip that's like an episode of Only Fools and Horses gone badly wrong, a three-wheeled Robin Reliant ploughs through a rail crossing outside Nottinghamshire before reversing back onto the tracks and getting stuck behind the barriers.

The clip was originally uploaded by the British Transport Police, who tweeted: "You'd have to be a right plonker to treat a level crossing like this three-wheel van did".
