it is not the train operators fault unless the signal was red due to a known problem at the grade crossing.


I guess you haven't managed to get around to reading those NTSB reports yet.

@ehBeth,
Do you have any facts to offer?

Better yet do you have any documented facts to offer?

Hawkeye likes it when he's handed stuff on a platter, so that he can turn up his nose at it.

The lady who is more than adept at avoidance has the temerity to question Hawkeye?

If the NTSB stats are too difficult to navigate, there is also

I like it when others make arguments and present facts rather than doing drive-by condemnations of what others say. I have no intention of sifting the NTSB site trying to figure out what beths point of view is, if she thinks I have it wrong then she needs to point out what is wrong before we continue.

That's absolutely and obscenely funny considering You literally DIDN'T PROVIDE ANY EVIDENCE AT ALL TO SUPPORT YOUR VIRULENT and factless claims in this entire thread.

Really, Hawkeye didn't do anything more than give his opinion on some headlines. You do this all the time in various threads. You didn't jump all over Merry and Joe for their opinions about the New Mexico Prez something or other.

Why the hypocrisy, Tsars?

JackassTT. I don't have time to literally answer or read EVERY single thread and post nor do I have the intention of trying. I have absolutely no freaking idea what you're rambling about.

@tsarstepan,
Point taken, Tsars. It wasn't your hypocrisy, just your stupidity.

@tsarstepan,
I have presented an argument grounded in the meaning of words that the headline is worded wrong. So far no one haas proved me wrong.

my point of view?

it doesn't matter what my point of view is.

the fact is ... you were wrong in your original presumption that trains are never at fault in accidents with rubber-wheeled vehicles (what century are you posting from?)

it is not a point of view or an opinion.

The fact is - you are wrong.



I gave you two sets of resources to allow you to do your own reading on the subject. I am NOT going to spoon-feed you the data.



Here's another good clue for you - look up some personal injury firms for their specialty areas - if they couldn't sue train companies because the trains/operators are at fault that specialty practice area wouldn't exist.

I haven't seen your argument, just your assertion that you are correct. Which you are not.

(And "argument" has only one "e".)

@ehBeth,
I said myself that I was wrong about that, but I am right that these headlines are not just poorly written but are written wrong.

I see here that you are confusing the train being wrong with the railroad being a contributor to the impact by not executing the proper warnings. I believe that what we see here is a failure of american justice, the warnings of approaching train should be seen as a courtesy, it is still the responsibility of the rubber wheel vehicle driver to make sure that they are not on the grade crossing at the same time the train is. The law does not agree with me, but as I have argued in multiple threads american law is very fucked up at this point.
