Views on railroad crossing deaths
The Daily Herald has a tendency to bury the death notices of railroad crossing deaths somewhere deep in the inner pages.
However, the accidents which occur when these victims drive around the railroad crossings, hit the front pages.
If the Daily Herald prints the original story on the front pages, don't the deaths of these people rate the same? Maybe then, people would realize that driving around railroad crossings gates is a losing proposition.
