Code of Operateing Rules

[edblysard]

Lets see if I read this right. You said drunk drivers have an excuse to get drunk and drive and kill people? What, pray tell, is that excuse? I would love to hear a rational reason anyone would excuse someone getting drunk or stoned, and then driving. The drunk driver who hit my cousin last easter, so hard it decapitated him, what excuse do you have for him? I really want to know.
And you claim to be worried about safety?
What a hypercritical buttweasel.
By the way, where do you work, and whats your real name? Or are you still too afraid to answer us?
Ed

Lets see, so if I get drunk, and run over you with my train, its ok, because I dont know what I am doing?
Cool, where is the nearest bar to where you live, and what kind and color car do you drive?
Ed

[edblysard]

ey Kev, remember during the security briefing, they told us not to say anything about the Stealth MACs? And here you go, telling the whole world. Man, I was so wanting to add to my total, maybe hit a Mercedes SUV full of yuppies, but noooo, you go and tell, now they will never let me get one...
Ed

[edblysard]

Hey, dipshi*, did it ever occure to such a stuipd buttweasel as you to hold the jerk who drank himself drunk responsible? Or are you going to claim the railroads forced him to drink till he was drunk, in a attempt to get him to drive across a railroad crossing so we could kill him?
God, you really are as stupid as you sound.
I was wrong, my wooden thing is still 8, your IQ is around 1.
Ed

[edblysard]

Aw, now you know his momma is reading this over his shoulder, thats how he gets to stay up so late, it not being a school night and all.

Did the drunk driver have $180 Million budgeted for the "DAMAGE CLAIM" a year in advance. Did he build the road there and leave it completely sight obstructed?

[edblysard]

No, four DWI, one DUI, and a PI, all within a three year period. So what excuse did you come up with? Explain what makes driving drunk ok. Leave railroading out of it. Dont compare it to anything. Just explain how you justify driving drunk, and how often do you do so?
Does you momma know you drink and drive?
And was your "lost" person drunk at the time?
Awaiting a response, sans railroad stuff, you coward.
Ed

[Jackflash]

I've been to 5 crossing collission lawsuits and
we've won all of them, we didnt pay frivolous
claims. jackflash

[edblysard]

What a dip, do you even realize what the claim money is for? Listen, tell your momma to loosen the apron strings enough for you to breath air, moron, the 180 million is to pay for goods damaged in transit, ie, stuff that gets broken in derailments and the shippers products lost or destroyed, or things that just dont get to where they are suppost to go.
Jeeze, you get more stupid by the moment.
So, where do you and momma call home?
Is momma even employeed?
How about you, or still to scared of the men to tell us?
Ed

[wabash1]

Ed you lost it. you had him on the floor on a 10 count like the rest of us then he found something that triggered you. Uniheads dont lose it they are more inteligent than that. to tell the truth i have lost 2 to drunk drivers and 2 hurt and rehab from drunk drivers. all seperate accidents. why dont i get upset, simple in court on day i listen to the cases 1 guy was in there for his 8th dui in 30days. he was schedualed to go infront of the judge and they canceled on the spot due to seeing her for his 3rd dui on that date. truth is until the law starts going after these people and putting them in jail for there actions there is nothing we can do. Oh and i did meet missouris parents the other day had a good conversation. yes talked for about a hour, they was a couple of real nice guys.

Listen to this isiot, he still going on with the story "Trains are as out of control as drunk drivers"
ok now lets play pre-school..

Now factor this in.. Trains run on their own Property, other RR property.. OK.. so let'
s call it "private property" Cuz thats what it is!

Now that we figured out the trains run on private property.. where do they have collisions with cars? (99% of the time?)

A) in the middle of farmers frields?
B) in the middle of a dense forest?
C) at a railroad car crossing?
D) or at your momma's house.

ok, i'll give you the answer because i believe your too stupid to figure it out..

C) is the correct answer... at a railroad crossing! so lets see.. theis train is capable of traveling anywhere else.. no problem... but as soon as it crosses a crossing and some idiot has left their car there.. It's the trains problme.. it's their fault

let's here what the pannel of judges has to say to this.. ooo.. WRONG!

it's like you, missouri.. when your drunk.. and you decide to do figure eight's in your front lawn with your car.. Will anyone care.. no unless your keeping people awake.. whose loss is it.. yours.. YOUR on your own property and you have a right to do whatever you want, right?

i would also like to point out this.. an car travels on average 60 miles a day. you may be less, you may be more...
60 miles times (5280) = 316, 800 Feet travelled.
(5280 being the conversion number from miles to feet)
now let's say you have to cross one grade crossing.. which spans a total of 20 feet.. (big exadgeration) so let's see.. 20/316, 800 =
(expressed in a percentage) is:
0.0063131% (31 repeating)....
thats less then 1%
thats less then 0.1%
that's less then 0.01%

Rememebr:

1/ 8 million you get struck by lgihtning
(0.0000125%)
1/17 million.. winnign the lottery (certain places it's harder)
(0.000000058%)
1/39.5 Billion.. that your standing on a railroad crossing, a train is 200 feet away from you bearing down on you at 55 MPH. the chances of it derailing and not hitting, not touching you.. you remain 100% intact while you stand on the tracks are... 1/39.5 billion
(2.53 E-11) (somehting like 0.0000000000253)

those are the facts.. tlak about low chances.. so not exactly missouri the most liekly of stories

Detour kev.

those are the facts

So if you take the crossings and put them end to end the train miles ON A ROAD goes to like 1% with the killings at crossings which puts the railroads off the rector scale with ANY other mode of transportation.
Amtrak-- 39,652,480 train miles... Killed 124--- 41 at crossings---1 person
killed every 319,778 miles traveled.
BNSF--161,813,974 train miles... Killed 148---68 at crossings---1 person
killed every 1,093,338 miles traveled.
CSX----109,901,185 train miles... Killed 120--- 39 at crossings---1 person
killed every 915,843 miles traveled.
NS------ 92,214,833 train miles... Killed ---126---58 at crossings--1person
killed every 731,863 miles traveled.
UP------186,750,216 train miles... Killed---221---69 at crossings---1 person
killed every 845,024 miles traveled

[Anonymous]

hey, dip... use commas...


Amtrak-- 39,652,480 train miles... Killed 124--- 41 at crossings---

124-41 equals... 83.. so...
heres the new data..

AMTRAK... 39, 652, 480 train miles.. killed 124.. 41 at crossings (39 due to driver stupididy) and 83... elsewhere (83 due to extreme stupidity)

where the he1l else can you get killed.. if your dumb enough to stand on the tracks not a crossing, maybe you jsut deserve to die? .. who stands on train tracks anyways?? maybe your friend did.. oops you won't tell us that part.. i'm intrested in the Data your not posting actually. this is all Missouri edited

so, your name, what you do, how your frined really died..

I bet he was walking along the tracks with a WALKMAN with music blarring..
and was struck from behind...

Yeah that fits.. thats why your complaining about horns and crap.

Well send him my regrets.. i'll have a flower fowarded his way.. maybe i should send an anvil with his name inscribed upon it:
It would say:



Richard Cranium!!

LOL
Detour Kev.

[wabash1]

Now a little of the truth then in your own figures. if you add all the trucking company miles all bus miles city and cross sountry, all auto miles divide the accidents like you do and it is 75% higher than railroad accidents. and just auto death alone for miles is 150% higher than railroad miles. seems railroads are safer.

lets add another figure train wrecks i only heard of 1 this year. ( train to train) cars beat that in 5 min of the year. trucks and buses about a hour into the year. i guess we know what is safer. and i know that trains have accidents with cars everyday that is the cars drivers fault. If you are laying in my cornfield at havest time and i run over you am i at fault. by misouris rules i am couse i didnt have gates on my propety no bells no whistles i didnt slow down to see if you move and give you all the opertunities to break the law. and deprive me from making a living. and that my profits should go to the survivoirs. every year for life.

Nope my figures work fine. Total train miles: 179,026,788 for 6 hundred some railroads divided by 67 million---Their should have been less than 3 deaths,,,,,,,,Not over 950 (which were reported)
