It would be much easier to cross if the cars would allow the gates to completely close before proceeding. They were engineered in such a way that carts would then have time to cross. However, way too many drivers cheat by trying to draft the car in front or they nose forward stopping the gate arm in mid-air. Neither of those actions are proper. But hey, that's people today! Rules are for everybody else.
