Private Railroad Crossings Pose Different Risks for Injury or Death
In other personal injury news a 68-year-old Ryan man died after colliding with two locomotives at a private Canadian National Railroad crossing in northeast Iowa. He is Kenneth Elmer Sweet who lived in rural Iowa near Cedar Rapids in Delaware County. Interesting enough the Iowa Highway Patrol technical investigator is quoted as saying warning signs and flashing lights are not, the big N-O-T, required at private crossings and trains don’t have to sound their horns or whistles at private crossings. Wouldn’t it be nice if warning signs saying this is a private railroad crossing were posted? That way we’d know they weren’t going to warn us before mowing us down.Category: Keyword Search: yield

Is it legal to drive distracted - Yes if you obey the laws.
Question: Who has the right of way at an uncontrolled intersection? Answer: The car on the right has the right-of-way. The car that controls the intersection is the one already into the intersection. If they arrive at the same time then the one to the right gets to have the right-of-way. Control means the car is already into the intersection. First in - first out.Category: Keyword Search: yield
