49% of people are below average intelligence.

50%

u/Pharuin 8h ago

On standardized tests, sure. But 50% of people is half, which would mean it would have to be under that; unless you're rounding the 49.9 up? Semantics aside, there are a LOT of stupid people on this planet.

"I had no idea where that train on a fixed track was going to go"  - driver of the truck (probably)

The real problem here is these trains that aren't yielding out of the way of these cars. Don't they know cars have all the rifhts?! This train could have very easily swerved out of the way and avoided all this trouble... 

/s in case any one doesn't get it

If only they would stop making those trains so invisible

u/chollida1 14h ago

Atleast this person stuck around. Though to be fair, they had no choice by the looks of things.

They should add cattle catchers to the ion

u/Boattailfmj 13h ago

Why didn't the train swerve? /s

GRT should refund month pass users. So many accidents and the shuttle bus doesn’t even run every 30 mins when there is disruption

u/VadersTater 13h ago

We’re going to run out of trains at this rate - there was another collision just yesterday…

1

u/Fit_Permission717 10h ago

Most of these are just fender benders. The region has lots of money to replace the area that would have been damaged in these collisions. I don’t think there has been any accident where the lrt was a write off.

u/LivingFilm 8h ago

I would hope this would be paid by the liability insurance of the idiot in the truck rather than the region's budget.

u/CriticismMindless740 11h ago

Lmfao such morons

u/justjoonreddit 11h ago

Gotta love how these idiots end up wasting half an hour because they gouldn't wait 3 minutes...

u/its1966 11h ago

I wonder if insurance companies have just banded together by now and there is a designated " ran into LRT train" division that handles all of these idiots

I have a dash cam that records audio and hubby will often download the content for the colourful commentary I apparently provide. I shake my head but honestly, not exactly surprised.

u/Jacen1972x 8h ago

Dang! We just reset the counter yesterday…

u/opinions-only 1h ago

Whenever I've come across the ion which isn't everyday but I've never been confused about when to go and when to stop. Every intersection is clearly marked when you can go and cannot.

u/ShannieD 14h ago

...how...?

u/Expensive_Plant_9530 10h ago

… how? How the fk do idiots still keep running into a giant freaking blue train?

Honestly I feel like something needs to be done about this. Perhaps a bylaw enabling the region to fine the offender much higher amounts?

All these easily preventable accidents are costing the tax payers money and municipal labour that could be devoted to other things.

Not even surprising, people are buying their licenses
