Another sneaky train hits truck

Hello trucks can be very noisy, Question is there a way no to hear a train if its coming from a blind curve and you clearly do not see the train.

 

#### Trains!
The Engineer needs better training ( sarcasim)

 

Look at the picture, it's 90 degrees, doesn't look like a blind corner to me, looks more like a blind driver.

What's the rule you were taught, or were supposed to be taught, about unlighted and ungated RR tracks, you ALWAYS look both ways before crossing.

 

Looks like you'd almost have to get the nose of a hood on the tracks to be able to see very far down the tracks. But unless there was a horn restriction at that crossing, no excuse not to have heard something while in that location [unless the driver had his stupid stereo cranked all the way up]

 

They should put up a light or an arm, maybe both.
In Oklahoma on Hwy 69 on the northbound side, you can look down and see a dirt trail in a field , with lights and arms.

 

You can HEAR the radio over all the rattling & shaking?

(I hate driving an old truck!)

 

Probably had his ears full of, Ear buds. I don't understand how people drive with them. My ole stereo sounds good enough for me.

 

He has a clear view in both directions...he thought he could make it, but was wrong.

 

these pesky trains, always sneaking up on people, I mean you'd think they'd something that sneaky on tracks.....................oh.........wait..........never mind, move along
