OK,here's a real good question.
How many of you good Dakota owners,when stopped at a Railroad crossing,or
the gates are coming down,decide to go around or under
the gates?
If you said,YES,u are DUMB.
Doing the above is not only against the law,but is a FEDERAL
OFFENSE,punishable by a $5,000 fine & 60 days in the joint.
I shoot/produce railroad videos(GREEN BLOCK PRODUCTIONS),and since 1991,i
have seen so many ignorant drivers who dont realize the dangers that
exist.Your 4,000 pound Dakota is no match for a 400,000 pound SD70MAC or a
SD40-2,moving at anywhere from 25-50 mph.
Did you know...that a vehicle that is struck by a train,moving at 50 miles
an hour,takes a mile to stop?...thats a long way to be pushed/dragged.
I have seen my share of close calls,and one of these days,i'll see it happen
for sure.And what will i do with the video??...off to the TV station i
go.Collect at least $500.00 for filming it,having it used in court(when the
defendants wife/family insist their loved one didnt go around the gates..Ya
Right!)
Personally i hope i never see it.It will change your life forever.
I just want all of you to remember the following at railroad crossings..
ALWAYS EXPECT A TRAIN!
