    Cripples 7 and 8? Good lord what a dramatic title over nothing. Trains have to stop and protect crossings everyday in railroading.

      Maybe look up the definition of cripple, stop and protect and cripple are the same thing. Cripple, def - depriving the ability to function normally, sorry for knowing how to use a dictionary!

    Good video, even if the thumbnail is a wee bit dramatic.
    I used to have to commute to work in Crow Wing County, and it never ceased to amaze me that each year, as soon as winter weather started, a significant number of drivers appeared to have forgotten how to drive in snow and ice.

      For what it is worth, the thumbnail came from the video and was not imported from anywhere else and no graphics were added. I guess what they say about thumbnails is true. Thanks for watching.

    That driver must have hit that railroad warning signal pretty hard for the car to spin off like that. Off topic : Wow - those new Amtrak locos can pull an entire train from 0 to 50 mph in around 20 seconds! Not bad !

      Funny, they don't advertise a 0 - 60 speed. lol

      Hard to say, I heard he is 17 years old. Not that the age makes a difference.

    Clickbait title. Neither train was "crippled". Nothing more than a very brief delay.

      There was no intention of clickbait. The title uses alliteration for emphasis, and the term 'cripple' was used in the sense of 'depriving the ability to function normally,' much like 'stop and protect.' I stand by the title choice. Thank you for your comment and for watching the video.

      @Gwenny0612 Had to have been. Crazy!

      I don't think he was thrown from the car. It took a couple seconds after he stopped until he flew across the street. That was one heck of an impact though.

    Was that driver drunk? Also, the trains weren't crippled they just had to flag the crossing.

    • @NTR-OTC

      Flag the crossing, that is literally the definition of crippled. Crippled def - depriving the ability to function normally!
