Dump Truck turns left at a no left turn sign, going past the flashing gates, and drives into the side of of a Metra commuter train – big ball of fire, driver is killed, and derailing the train – several people on the train were hurt, but not seriously.
The name of the truck driver was Kazimierz Karasek.
Now get the thought out of your head! Naughty Naughty!
Karasek, of Prospect Heights, had been cited for more than 50 traffic violations, including a DUI, since 1986.
