British Transport Police are out at Oakham level crossing today. 

They ask drivers to remain patient when using railway level crossings. 

Town and rural crossings must be used with care and always follow the rules. 

Lots of driver are caught by the fixed cameras driving through the red lights and then more are prosecuted when the British Transport Police bring in their CCTV van. 

Because we have a local paper that does not attend court hearings you will never see the huge fines issued by the courts for this very dangerous offence. If you read the Melton Times you would have seen plenty of Oakham driver have been prosecuted and received fines of nearly £1000.
