Why is it that the people that set up the signs for a small construction zone on two lane roads, always put up the warning signs and speed limited changes on the down side of a hill. It works out that as you crest the hill I actually see the work going on before I see the signs and the stopped traffic.

I think it's about time for a new spin on an old saying. Whatever tows around slows around.

...not that...I've done that before... Cause you know...that's just mean.
...and slightly funny in an immature way. -
So this morning near the train tracks, it's just me pulling up and the lights start to flash, so I'm considering the HM regs and stopping around 25ft back, not that I had it onboard, but just as well. Then a car pulls up 25ft ahead in the next lane, to the line, while the train is flying by. Strikes me as senseless, both for the line being painted a couple feet from the tracks, and the vehicle volunteering to be nailed if the train derailed. I suppose that's why the HM regs have us stop back a ways from the track. I'll probably go for 50ft next time.
