[/quote] The truck skidded 320 feet, so I don't see how witnesses could conclude that the truck did not attempt to stop. I would like to know more about that "warning signal 897 feet before the crossing."  I wonder if that is an active advance warning signal that I have advocated, or whether it is just sloppy reporting that refers to the passive RXR sign as a signal.
