    Head up to the East-Side of Seattle- The Microsoft morons get in their BMW's and text all the way home while weaving through traffic. Sad... all those brains and no common sense.

    Too many people in Seattle talk to themselves. Something is not right there.

    People, especially truckers, need to be aware that when you get stuck on a railroad crossing, the FIRST thing you need to do is look for a sign with a 1-800 number and the crossing ID on it. If there is such a sign there, call the number immediately. The railroad will shut down service through that area. If the sign isn't there, call 911 and give the location. The 911 dispatcher will be able to contact the railroad. The next thing you do is leave the truck where it is, and GET THE **** AWAY FROM THE TRACKS. He was stuck there for 10 minutes before the train came through trying to get the truck free, while obviously doing nothing to alert anyone of the problem.

    What a RR crossing ID sign looks like:

    He may not have gotten charged, but he has a preventable accident on his record, and he'll probably lose his job.

    Truck crashes of all types have been decreasing over the years, with one exception: Railroad crossings.

    You mean those folks on I45 going to work reading the paper, drinking coffee, on the phone, and driving with their knees don't have special licenses?

    Shazammm!
