As was well put in a reaction by a friend of mine, "What are they? Murderers?" People need to think this through, and OL should show more TV commercials. I saw a few from a TV cannel up in York PA, and OL has some good, graphic ones. <br /> <br />I don't know what it was, but there was a show on TLC one day that had footago of vehicles stuck on crossings as trains came by. If they showed these mor often (Mayby even Big Screen TVs at crossings) people would be less willing to weave the gates. One wasa test, and had a Brand new pickup truck being hit by a train consisting of chemical tank cars and at least 1 loco. The train kept going, but the truck almost snapped in half. Other footage has: a van being smashed to pieces, a car causing sparks along the rails, a tractor trailer being thrown up in the air in pieces, and trains that didn't make it eather (Wreck scenes and hoppers on top of homes), and much more. On the other hand, i guess the destruction of the Delorian on Back to the future III wasn't enough to sink in.
