Crashing with a snow plow - Is the driver at fault?

Okay what do we have here today; a redirect notice to this link. A 911 recording by the Sioux County Sheriff’s office involving the mother whose truck rolled over.

Bikes, motorcycles and pedestrian car accidents

Motorists need to get a reality check about the time of year it is and that they will be sharing the road with people driving less noticeable types of vehicles.

Train Accident Caused by Tall Corn Blocking the View?

Wednesday, September 30^th, about noon, Edward R. Stevens, age 76, was driving down a country road south of Ohio 103, in Bloomville, when Stevens was hit by a westbound Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway train, according to Bucyrus Telegraph Forum news source. It was reported that at this crossing on Schwemley Road, there is no warning signal or gates. One of Steven’s neighbors, Donald Rayoum, said, “When you are driving north and the corn is grown up like it is now, you cannot see if a train is coming.” Steven was driving a 1991 Ford pick-up and was not wearing a seatbelt. Investigation is still underway.

Of course in Iowa we know the corn is there, but then again so does the train's engineer. How about that horn to signal the train's approach to the intersection?
