TRACTOR TRAILER TRUCK FAILED TO YIELD TO A MUCH BIGGER AND MUCH STRONGER TRAIN AND WAS CRASHED IN GEORGIA.




APRIL 1, 2015

TRENTON, DADE COUNTY, GEORGIA

A tractor trailer and a train have collided at a crossing near Highway 11 and Harris Road in Trenton in Dade County.

Dispatchers tell Channel 3 that there are no injuries.

The driver was crossing over the railroad heading toward Highway 11 when it was hit by the train.   The truck, carrying wooden pallets, received extensive damage.

There are no cross bars or warning lights at this intersection. 

Georgia State Patrol tells our crew on the scene, the driver will be cited for not yielding.

What is wrong with these truck and car drivers messing up with the trains?  Are they looking for trouble? Do they have a death wish?  Get their licenses immediately.  They should not be driving on the road.
