A perfect example of a bad example

A while ago in my town some idiot kids ages 16-20 (older than me by the way) decided it would be cool to put a stolen van onto a grade crossing and let a train hit it. When the Kansas City Southern coal drag came along, I can just imagine the horror of the engineer and conductor, who probably thought someone was in the van. That train crew had already flipped over a few hoppers at Roodhouse, hit a deer a little north of where this happened, so I bet those guys (or ladies) were pretty stressed out. For those of you who say that honest people are hard to come by these days, I agree with you-I;m only 14 and have seen some very bad and wrong things done to other people. put the responsibility where it belongs-we all make mistakes but that gives us no right to blame other people. People need to be safer on the road indeed, there's something like a car accident every 30 seconds, a fatal one every 20 minutes. Make you wonder how many of those happened by a crossbuck.
