In the video, the train can be seen travelling at high speeds, blaring its horn before colliding with the truck, causing dust to be sprayed everywhere.

The truck is sheared in half as a loud boom is heard.

This is not the first time a train has slammed into a stuck truck at the crossing.

In January of this year, two semi-trucks got hit by an oncoming train within a single week.

The reason for this type of vehicle getting stuck is the grade on the tracks being too high.

The most recent crash is believed to be the third that's happened so far this year.

Local authorities have proposed a plan to fix the issue in an effort to prevent train crashes.

One witness Malik Jordan, who is a student at Wingate University, had been getting a pizza when he saw the accident last night.
