O Great now RR Crossing Signs are jumping out in front of cars
Speed was the contributing factor in this crash. I live just a half mile up the road and was on my porch when the vehicle came by my house at an extremely fast speed. I heard the “thud” of the crash but couldn’t get down there. Prayers for the driver. I see alot of people speeding on this road from cars to log trucks. FHP and ESCD need to set up on this road…
Maybe just now since the cross gates are going to have to be repaired at this Crossing they will repair the one on Muscogee road that doesn’t quite work very good a train can be right up on you before the arms go down I had a little buddy almost got hit by train the other day there
