I speak my mind, if you don't like that oh well. I'll have you fill out a hurt feelings report and submit that to my office.

They actually did it.... :Blink:

There was something like that being proposed for the MUTCD 2009. I don't know if it went ahead or not, but that is just weird...

Judging by the sign to the left of the crossing, a lot of golf carts go through that little crossing there.

Oh, and if you hadn't noticed... this is the same rail line that uses the unsignalized crossings in this thread.

I'm going to be the Simon Cowell harda$$, and say 12. (One for each red stripe)
Oh, and I'm also taking an extra two points for no gate lights, and uh... 1 point for no bell.
:aaargh:
Just give me $20K and a baseball bat. I'll keep people from crossing if they know what's good for 'em. :LOL: :LOL2:
Not. :Drool:
