According to a local news source

"MOKENA, Ill. (WTHR) - What could have been a tragic collision was averted recently, thanks to a quick-thinking police officer.
It was all caught on camera.
The officer swerved just in time to avoid a commuter train, which was going about 50 mph.
The driver of an SUV in front of the officer just clears the tracks in time"
