    How or why he couldn't glance out that drivers door window and see that train I don't know. Hope the driver didn't get hurt too bad.

    Tunnel vision. Probably ticked off, and a head of steam after just getting inspected, and wanted to get outta there.

    Manage your emotions, no matter what crap just happened.

    Just drug it gently by the mirror. Of all the times for the mirror to hold firm. Lol!

    yeah, i'm thinking he was ticked off at the stop, maybe a ticket as well.

    i do not recall the comments from years ago when this was first posted.
