The driver had come down Glenwood Road from Ridgewood during the Dec. 20 evening rush and, following the GPS, made a left near the Ho-Ho-Kus train station -- only too soon.

The Ford sedan instantly got stuck on the tracks.

Citywide Towing initially sent a lift instead of a flatbed, so NJ TRANSIT's Emergency Services Unit responded to free the vehicle so it could be removed.

Neither the driver nor the lone passenger were injured.

Ho-Ho-Kus police were first on the scene.
