Last evening my wife and I went for a drive to her favorite ice cream place. We had to cross a marked Rail Road Crossing; it is decked out with flashing lights and the automated crossing gate that lowers when the train approaches.
When we got to the crossing the lights were flashing red and the gates were coming down; of course we stopped BUT a Mercedes going the opposite way went around the gates as they were coming down.
My wife and I watched in disbelief as this idiot (sorry, to be PC it's Mr. Idiot) drove around the lowering gates while the red lights were flashing and the train approaching . Thankfully the Mercedes made it across the tracks in time and the train barreled through.
What is wrong with people?
