I don't know the specific details of the second incident, although there are photos of the LRV with the front bumper removed and a coupler visible.
This fellow insisted that there was no collision, just a vehicle that had narrowly missed the train and become lodged on the tramway.
I think it may well have been yet another incident, I mean not the one that CTV reported on at Agnes and King. In absence of some kind of comprehensive list of service disruptions, we can't know for sure how often trains are delayed because of motorist errors. At some point, the local media will stop covering collisions: once we've had a couple of dozen, it's not really "news" any more...
