Truck vs. Train In Idaho

Oversize probably got hung up on the tracks. Nice goin',,,,

 

Bet he wont try thay again.

 

Like high centered or ?

 

Usually, these lowboys are very close to the ground, and the slight rise over tracks, they bottom out, then the air in the suspension drops, making matters worse. Some crossing have signs for that, I'm sure there will be one here now.

 

Driver okay but cited after semi truck obliterated by train

A truck driver is okay after a wreck that obliterated his rig in Idaho on Tuesday.

The accident happened on December 22nd at around 10 a.m. at U.S. Highway 95 and Highway 20/26 in Canyon County, near Deb Lane crossing.



According to KTVB 7 News, an empty semi truck failed to yield to an oncoming train and was struck, obliterating the rig and rupturing the fuel tank, spilling fuel across the tracks. It is unclear whether the semi truck driver was stopped on the train tracks or was attempting to cross ahead of the train at the time the incident occurred.

Luckily, the 65-year-old unnamed driver was miraculously uninjured in the incident, but he has since been cited. The exact nature of his citations were not clear.

 

FORTUNATELY & THANKFULLY, the 65 year old truck driver MIRACULOUSLY came out of it one piece. He may have citations to worry about, but he is MIRACULOUSLY alive and well enough to continue on with the rest of his life.

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

The absolute sheer driving force of our national economy - without truck drivers, our entire national economy would come to an absolute standstill - if not outright be dead.

Over the mountains, through the woods, into the valleys, coast to coast, from sea to shining sea - truck drivers can and do go anywhere and everywhere, every day, all year round.

 

He will be fine.

Chinatown probably found him a new job by now.
