    Kind of funny.

    Cars often pull out in front of big trucks because they appear to be moving slowly due to their large size, the driver doesn't realize just how fast the truck is going until it is too late. Shouldn't truck drivers be aware that it's the same with a train? Trains are very large and appear to be moving slower then they really are due to their size so why try to beat one?

    Red Volvo again. Must be the same driver who pulled into the intersection in front of that oncoming truck in a video someone posted a few months back. Got his trailer taken out then too.

    What do you mean you 'drive' for them...I thought Chuck Norris trucking was so tough...the truck sits still and it forced the world to rotate under the wheels in the direction of the consignee..:biggrin_2559:
