Pictures show how two police officers came close to being wiped out by a train after their vehicle landed on tracks at Mt Druitt in Sydney’s west.
The officers were chasing a speeding trail bike before they lost control around a corner.
The highway patrol unit was pursuing a motorcycle darting down Mount Druitt’s George Street about 4.40pm yesterday.
The police car became stuck on the tracks, with the two constables scurrying to safety right before a train barrelled past.
One track over and it would have been a very different story.
Witness Darlene Dabbagh said the offices gave her the thumbs up when they got out.
