    AT, if you ever figure out what wrong with people here let me know.... I see people here do some of the dumbest things in vehicles....it's incredible.

    I also agree with Giggles, people are nuts everywhere.... I just happen to live it here daily with these people.

    People around Houston are bad about being impatient and trying to beat the trains.....there is always someone getting hit by a train around here.

    I think Larry The Cable guy says it best about people getting hit by trains

    "oh look a train is comeing, what ever do i do?.......on i know maybe i'll take 1 step to the side! :biggrin_25523:"


    That quote is not exact, i tried to find the bit on YouTube with no luck so thats what i remember of it

    They call it distracted driving, I call it distracted living. It results in DEATH. Two or three Texans today, two or three Tarheelers tomorrow....

    This saying wasn't created by a Texan. Really it was a Washintonian who discovered it was a bad idea to mess with TEXAS 'cause you can't ever get the smell off your hands if you do!!!
     
    AXE and American-Trucker Thank this.
