“Ohio Drivers..USE COMMON SENSE…“ Hehe, that’s funny there.
Ohio Drivers..USE COMMON SENSE…DO NOT ENTER a Railroad crossing if cannot clear it..In a hurry going nowhere..Familiar with this crossing and as a driver i see it all the time..as well as city wide..Not realizing that this driver was lucky but also if the train hit the trailer another way..more drivers would have been involved..In my opinion maybe a quad system would work or extending the warning length from 30 seconds to 45 seconds,,Im sorry but no excuse for this..if cant clear any crossing then do not pull onto the crossing..A few minutes is worth more than no life at all from impatient driving..UNREAL..
So, it hit a truck. Thanks for adding that little detail.
Yeah chickens would be cool.
What truck?
What was the truck hauling? I’m hoping for live chickens.
