He didn't pay attention to the lesson last time in class. <br /> <br />Class is over, detention is now in session. Detention is for insubordination: ignoring the traffic rules. <br /> <br />The article you cited states in Paragraph 2: <br /> <br />"Unfortunately, people die everyday after ignoring railroad warning lights and bells." <br /> <br />Lets not forget people also ignoring: <br /><font color="red">red traffic lights at intersections <br />stop signs <br />yield signs <br />don't walk signs <br />school zones <br />cross walks <br />highway construction zones <br />speed limits</font id="red"> <br /> <br />or don't forget people driving: <br /><font color="red">drunk <br />on drugs <br />smoking <br />using a cell phone <br />applying makeup</font id="red"> <br /> <br />which increases the danger even more. <br /> <br />why should RR Xing get ALL the attention? why not other traffic violations, too?people are killed all the time ignoring ALL of the above. it's just as dangerous and deadly as ignoring a red flashing RR Xing light, crossbucks, or the presence of rails themselves. you must stop at EVERY RR Xing EVERYtime, not just when a train is coming. look both ways, roll down your windows, then proceed when safety. <br /> <br />bus drivers don't have a problem with this, why do you? I guess you never took driver's ed.</font id="Times New Roman"> <br />[/quote] Actually I used to fix drivers ed simulators. What I want to do is get a drivers education teacher to show me how to get across blind crossing. Just think if they taught their students to dial 911 and report blind crossings. <br />[/quote]What part of Look, Listen and Live did you find so hard to learn? <br />I guess that was the same class that taught you to think before you speak? <br />Asleep in both classes, or just asleep at the wheel? <br />[/quote] Is that the chapter before gates prevent 9 out of 10 collisions and 95 out of 100 deaths compared to Mickey Mouse signs---Lights prevent 8 out of 10 collisions and 87 out of 100 deaths and right after the in their pockets Federal government deeming it that railroads don't pay diddly for safety equipment.???
