Train vs. truck


One occupant, DOA


Unknown cause, weather was bad, May or may not have been a factor.

The power trains have when they hit vehicles, even each other, is immense. The Operation Lifesaver program in New York should put this truck on a trailer (including the blood) and show case it at state fairs and other events so more people see the ramifications of getting in a train's way.

A smashed up truck in a storage lot does not an "Action" shot make......

This one is better, lol. Upstate NY a couple days ago. Trailer was pushed 400 feet before it stopped.

Dang, that's a good one too. Any info on the driver? Looks like he took a cold bath, unless he was out prior to impact

Truck driver must have had a "full download" in his pants after that collision. Wow... :ugh:
