Video Shows Train Ramming Truck

This is an idea what terrorist would do. Who knows what that truck might had, Exposives? Chemical or Biological stuff? Heres an idea top prevent an such an event.. Trains are warned with a sign to slow down 10 MPH when approaching an intersection. Put Cameras at those areas. If video shows train isnt at the 10MPH speed the conductor faces ternination from his job.OR if boss refuses to fire the conductor the train company faces an $100,000 fine. See trains speed 70-80 MPH going across the intersetion. Or Build a bridge over or a tunnel under from those intersections. Cause Terrorist will take every opputinity they can get to get the goverment stop siding with israel.

That was an Amtrak train in the video. They go about 68 mph thru our local SC towns. Freights are slower. They won't be slowing down to 10 mph. Tunnels and bridges at all intersections is financially and physically not feasible. Also, I think it is the engineer who "drives" the train, not the conductor. Slowing trains thru intersections is not the solution for terrorist attack.

I agree that trains are potential targets, as we saw in Spain.

Well they should slow down to 10 MPH cause what happens if an al queda member whos the truck driver carrying a nuclear bomb? Then my god youll have president bush pressing the red button and youll be seeing this next on saudi arabia.
