  • This is the ONLY time that the cop had to drop his donut.

  • @pfd7slick Are you serious? How were they supposed to know a fire truck was on the track?! The fire truck driver was an idiot for parking there. You clearly know nothing about railroading. Also the train came around a blind curve doing the legal track speed. How are you supposed to know what on the other side of a blind curve if you can't see around it?! Very idiotic comment the train crew did nothing wrong.

  • wow seriously wow. I would never want these people to rescue me or whatever the FIRETRUCK they were doing (see what I did there?). i'd rather die waiting for someone who's competent than having these assholes try and fail at saving my life.

  • What the FIRETRUCK was the driver of that FIERTRUCKING firetruck thinking? Thank you Smosh for inventing a less offensive way of cursing. ^^

  • Why didn't the train just turn left and go AROUND the fire truck?

  • When worlds collide...

  • Why would the passengers have to go to the hospital?

  • That's the southwest side of Detroit - that's a railroad yard area - several sets of parallel tracks. I've crossed those tracks at that intersection hundreds of times. The firefighters and police were responding to an accident at the intersection. No excuse to park on active tracks like that for the cops or fire. That cost a bankrupt city a six figure fire truck.

  • @RansomCowboy Completely agree. What can seriously make a person think something like that is funny?

  • The tiller man would later shit his pants

  • well at least they wont have to call out the fire department

  • it looks like they were responding to something else in the intersection, without even thinking about their own situation.

    Besides the police car that backed out of the way, looked like there were 2 more in the intersection blocking traffic.
