Post subject:  Re: Dangerous Commercial URGENT!

The commercial shows the crossing gates down for the trains in order to allow the Cadillac to pass, as though it had "right of way". The commercialwas clearly made with the cooperation of the railroads involved (I think it was U.P.). I have to agree with Angie, in that it is a stupid illusion, but obviously some large cash had to have been ponied up prior to the railroad allowing such a thing to be filmed. I'm not defending it, I'm simply saying that bad taste was pallatable to both sides in this case.
