  • he had to really have been concentrating on that supposed text... the track lights arent like random stop signs you forget about at the last sec. kinda hard to miss, especially when you run a single route all the time. you kinda know where they are and when to look up.

  • I CANT WAIT TO DIE WEN MY PARENTS GET MY HTC THTT IVE BEEN ASKING FOR!!!!!!! JK JK

  • and this is why texting is stupid!!... i never text, and i don't even own a phone, but i'm still happy, and able to communicate easily.

  • There is a blackberry app available that you can customize an auto response to text messages. Simply put "driving, will call you later" or just use it as an away message on your blackberry.

    Auto TextBak is the name and has its own site AutoTextBak

  • Which one of my comments indicate to you I'm a dumbshit?

    That California passenger trains aren't "for profit". Nah. That's not it because they are subsidized.

    That more people in the front end would be safer? You advocate two is not enough. But maybe three is not enough. Or four.

    C'mon. Be specific. Perhaps I can learn from an intellectual such as yourself.

  • your definately a dumbshit

  • he was texting a foamer on YT and was gonna let him drive the train

  • i would sue the shit out of metrolink

  • What about three? Four? If we put five in each cab that would be really, really safe?

    Are the passenger railroads in California really for profit operations or are they already government subsidized? Huh?
