I’ll admit, I’m guilty of drive-texting on occasion.  But I don’t think I’ve ever been as oblivious as this guy.

Seriously, though, if you’re waiting to cross a train track, it may be a good idea to hold off that “i <3 u” text to your sweetie long enough to make sure there aren’t any more 240 ton metal vessels hurtling at you, blaring their horns.  I’m just sayin’…
