@Apollowasreal you dumbass the road on the other side was blocked (so the train can go) that guy driving the truck needs glasses if he didn't see that and honestly he took a risk driving on the tracks trains take a long time to stop going at that speed
Dont ya just love the way truck drivers push cars around on the highways .. im bigger than you .. so im gona pull out ... tough shit ... well this ass had it comming to him .. truck vs train .. you fail
Realize you can't move, so get out of the cab and go a safe distance from the tracks. Losing your life would be a lot worse than losing the truck... He sure risked his there.
I think he tryed to take backwards, there was somebody behind him. Cab was just on rails. Then what you would do, stay there and wait be killed. So he tryed to get thrue. Was not working, but he is still alive. No body is not doing that because they are stupid. They are not notising trafic lights or not seeing them because of sun. When you would once drived truck, you would know there is much things to look and take care. Mirrors are good and bad. Going on next
He probalby thought, I can beat that train, because I have a really big cock. I guess the train driver had a bigger one.lol. Dickhead male drivers. Go home and put the trash out.lol.
It surprises me how fucking stupid people can be. He should have clearly seen the train coming! Did he honestly think his semi truck and flat bed trailer could outrun the train?
my dad worked for that company for 25 years.it mercer trucking out of spokane washington.and the ower there sucks so much cock he fucks himself up the ass.
haha.my dad used to work for that company.it mercer trucking out of spokane washington.he new the dude.he looked at the truck up close and it was so fucked.
@dogfreak1316 Poor dude my ass, he had it fucking coming since he was obviously a stupid dumbass and can't wait 3 minutes for a train that had the right of way in the first plaace. I hope he was killed, it would be one less idiot in the world. LOOK, LISTEN, and LIVE! Don't beat trains. He was a FUCKING IDIOT.
@1fordman2011 Well if you pay a lil more attention to the video. The driver was caught between 2 arms. Probably couln't back up cause of vehcles behind him so instead of getting a train in the side of the cab where he was sitting take it with the trailer.
Still, he was an idiot. He was better sitting where he was, then if a train was approaching on the other track, he could have backed up and ripped the gate off.Maybe you should watch the video
@owenowen Yeah, I didn't notice that second set of tracks at first, but now I do. I can see he was trapped between the gates because they didn't descend early enough. He might not have been able to tell which tracks the train was approaching on, especially if it was a curve.
The truck driver still might be at fault if the alarm lights and bell activated well before the gates went down, but if they all activated at the same time I think he can make a good case that the railroad is at fault.
If he stayed where he was parked accross the first track, he may have had a fine on his hands at the end of the day but he probably would have been ok. Unless another train was coming on the other track.
guys, pay attention before you call the driver stupid. Look, there is another set of track, behind the one that the train was on. He thought he could back up buttheir was probably an intersection or traffic blocking him from doing so, so he panicked and went forward.
To Tell you the Truth right now, l got a very simple message to all truck drivers all around United States and Canada. Whether you're a professional or especially newbies, always when you approach the railroad tracks with red lights and bells on, NEVER TRY TO OUTRUN TRAINS WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER!!!
I don't mean to spring to the driver's defense, but if you look, there appears to be a double set of tracks. He had already stopped on one set, and it's like he knows the crossing arm already crossed behind him. Perhaps he ( or she, could be a woman ) saw the train coming but somehow didn't know which set of tracks it was on, or saw another locomotive on the first set of tracks and thought that by moving forward he could get out of danger. he was obviously wrong.
@digler99 I was thinking the same thing. It's harder to imagine that it was pure stupidity, although that could be possible these days. He (she) probably thought he was in danger, and couldn't back up (into traffic), so he panicked and tried to get on across at the last second.
I was the engineer in the train. I recognized the guy in the truck was the guy that ran off with my ex-wife so I sped up, but bad luck I only got his trailer.....damn.
I dont feel any sympathy for this dumbass but the ONLY thing ill give him the benefit of a doubt over is that when trains are coming down a long, straight track...no matter how fast theyre going..they always look like they're going slowly until theyre right on top of you...literally...but you dont take chances like that with an 18 wheeler. Look, Listen, Live guys.
its bit disturbing just how little time there is between barrior coming down and train crossing. in uk you seem to be waiting 5 mins or more from bariors coming down before train comes along.
@markdicking1976 from the moment the gates start to move it was about 15-16 seconds before the locomotive reached the crossing. typically, the lights come on a few seconds before the gates move, so this crossing is very close to the 20 second lead time required by law. this driver had the correct idea first, to back clear of the tracks. screw the gate stuck on the truck. I bet he won't make that mistake again....
How nice now go fuck yourself all you dumb fuck foreigners act like only americans do stupid shit... Thats probly the only thing that pisses me off is when you dumb asses leave those BS comments
he stopped on the 2nd track .. then tried to back up but you can pretty clearly see he hits something with the back ...and i guess it's a complete oh shit! moment from there
kinda looked like a suicide attemp cuz he like stoped his truck in the middle then he was like fuck this and started hittin the pedal but he was just a few inches to close it would of took his trailer but the extra 8 inches or so took that boy around town
No, If he stayed where he was he'd have gotten side swiped, Wich would have lead to his death, He had a great chance of living if it got his trailor, Of course, if it was fast enough to jerk the semi to the side of the train he'd possibly die.
Hold on, so the train was on track 2, when he tried to back up he was on track 1, even if he would of stayed on track 1 the train would of cleared the truck right?
The bar wasn't down when he tried to cross. It came down between the truck and trailer. He should've just stopped and broke the stop arm by backing up, but he panicked. Still a fail on the driver, but the arm is a little bit suspect.
Oh no the little barrier cam down... I dont want to break it il try cross even though the trains 5 seconds away.... dip shit... just reverse through it!
I was just being an asshole in general mate and considering that the U.S. is 1 of very few countries that dont equipt their trucks with bullbar's i think it was a fucking good guess,was i right?
Ok princess its canada,and you dont know shit if ya dont know what its like driving them day in day out,in WA we tow 3 40 foot trailers at 1 time which is the most i know of in any country personally,so we dont ahve it easy like you dudes and we keep a strong eye out for roos and bulls.
Actually I do know "shit" as you so eloquently put it. I may not drive daily, and I may not have moved 3 - 40' trailers on the road...but I can handle 5000 feet on rail coming out of the rockies.
What I do know is how to manage them from port ot train to origin/destination. Personally I would rather know how to optimize the movement of thousands of containers than dodge a 'roo' .
Would be fun to ride along with you one day though. Australia is one of my favorite places.
Definately mate,i live in a small mining town called Karratha where we have 5.5km long iron ore trains travelling to ports and soon across to smelters in Queensland,i know how you would feel doing your job,but i was just trying to say it aint easy driving trucks with some of the shit ya gotta contend with sometimes.
And the dickhead drivers around ya when ya trying to hold on to 170' of truck.
Ok, ok. Point taken. It could have happened anywhere but it was in Canada. Not Europe, Asia or the States but in Canada. Yes, yes. We get it. Canadians and Canada is wrong, bad and dumb.
He would have been clear of the train for sure had he stayed back where he was stopped when he backed up. I have no doubt that probably cost him his job. Not to mention whatever charges he got for failure to yield a train crossing when the equipment is active. Lucky he isn't dead.
I realize that a cross gate had come down behind his cab but that is hardly a "bar"..He could have bent it in half or snapped it off with eaze simply by backing up..I think he was trying to avoid doing that and hoped to beat the train.
That bar is not going to prevent that truck from reversing. If he put his truck in reverse he wouldn't even feel any resistance from this very thin gate.
The gates were already down, He was totally wrong, If he lived, he should lose his license. I have had a CDL=A license for 21 yrs. And it's common sense, you CANNOT judge the speed of a moving train. This guy is a idiot!! He must have gotten his license at K-Mart or Sears!!
he was probably embarrased by being caught under the gate and thought i'd be better to just go but didn't realize by being hit it'd be worse than the embarrasment
I think he tried to put the truck in reverse but got stuck there. As long as there wasn't a train on the other track he should've just stayed where he was.
The lights and bells start about 15 seconds before the barrier arms come down. The driver must have seen and heard them. If he didn't, then he should not have been driving. If he did and tried to run about 80 feet of steel and rubber over the crossing, then he was, and probably still is, a jerk. God forbid no one died, because the train must have been doing 60 - 80 miles per hour at least. Hopefully the jerk learned his lesson the hard way.

The gates were already down, He was totally wrong, If he lived, he should lose his license. I have had a CDL=A license for 21 yrs. And it's common sense, you CANNOT judge the speed of a moving train. This guy is a idiot!! He must have gotten his license at K-Mart or Sears!!

Why he didn't stay there at the first position, he wasn't on the track.

he was probably embarrased by being caught under the gate and thought i'd be better to just go but didn't realize by being hit it'd be worse than the embarrasment

Just goes to show. NEVER try to outrun a train. You may think you can make it, but usually you can't.

I think he tried to put the truck in reverse but got stuck there. As long as there wasn't a train on the other track he should've just stayed where he was.

The lights and bells start about 15 seconds before the barrier arms come down. The driver must have seen and heard them. If he didn't, then he should not have been driving. If he did and tried to run about 80 feet of steel and rubber over the crossing, then he was, and probably still is, a jerk. God forbid no one died, because the train must have been doing 60 - 80 miles per hour at least. Hopefully the jerk learned his lesson the hard way.

aaah, he started
and the front gate came down, blocking him
then the back gate came down too, blocking backwards.

The gate came down real late. He stopped, then took off. Maybe he could not tell whitch track the train was using.

Only way that is possible is if your truck stop prostitute is distrcting you. I wouldda just backed up and snapped that rear gate in half!

He still would have not cleared if he backed up.
Nightwing398963 2 years ago
you're kidding em right? He wasn't even on the track with the train to begin with, so of course he would've cleared it...
VancouverCanucksRock 2 years ago
Let me restate this, he could NOT HAVE EVEN BACKED UP QUICK ENOUGH!!!!!
