Never Mess With A Train!!!!

If your thinking of beating these trains.
You really need to hammer down,not take your sweet time crossing the tracks.
Also you gotta make sure your going to have enough room to clear the tracks if your going to cross when 500,000 tons are bearing down on you.

Number one these truckers shouldn't have tryed to beat the trains in the first place.
but the number two items is where the dumbness really took over.
 
The grain truck one is the best. You can see the driver slow up right at the tracks, probably looking right. Then he looks left and all you see is black smoke rolling out the stacks and :TR10driving03: kaboom!!!! That thing just explodes!!!! Didn't look like he let off the hammer till the next county. :hysterical:
 
He should have followed the smith safe driving system,which says look left,then right,then back to your left,last in front.
A few seconds to do the right thing,and he would have gotten the grain where it was supposed to go,instead of blown all over the rail road bed.
 
This is a couple of years old now. This happened at IL Rte 64 and Addison Road, in Villa Park, IL.

I heard the driver was had a suspended license, wasn't hurt. But there was a few serious injuries of the cars that got hit as a result of his stupidity. This was big news. I lived about 2 miles away from this intersection at the time this accident happened.
