I kind of agree, as long as this isn't just preaching from some government jerk or a political group like MADD.

We certainly don't want any 8 year olds trying to beat the train when they're driving.

Obviously, Disney owes this man a lot of money.

"As I'm sitting there, I couldn't believe it because this is a red car. My daughter was killed in a red car," said Lanny Wilson with the DuPage Railroad Safety Council.
Clearly Mr. Wilson's absolute moral authority entitles him to be spared the sight of red cars for the rest of his life.

If you were to ever see the video taken from the engine of a train as it bears down on a car at a railroad crossing, you would side with this father. It takes more than a mile to stop a moving train. Those engineers have to live with what happens to the people in those cars, too. The scene should never have made it to the final cut in that movie.

I'm furiously trying to calculate the cost of painting my truck compared to any potential lawsuits I might incur if Mr Wilson finds out I drive a red truck.

I can't BELIEVE Disney showed Lightning Mcqueen pulling a road surfacer... My Uncle Elmer DIED pulling a road surfacer! How could they be so insensitive? /s

It's worse than I realized at first. Not only do I have a red truck I live on (gulp) Railroad street. Maybe I can sue the township for their negligence in naming a street "Railroad st"?

That's what I thought at first too, but what he actually wants excised from the movie is the "race the train" scene, as that is how his kid died.
Having said that though, I think this is a bit ridiculous. If anyone is going to see a cartoon car race a train and decide that is a greenlight ofr them to do the asme in real life, then there's some pretty serious issues there, far more than can be blamed on a movie.
I grew up watching the Dukes of Hazzard, and as far as I recollect, I've never had the urge to jump a river because I was in a hurry.

Oh, crap. I've got a Dreaded Red Deathmobile out in my garage right now! It's only 15 feet from where I'm sitting!! Maybe I can *gently* push it outside before it goes off!!!

If it was blue, or even maroon, we could let it slide. But red? No, kids need to be protected from seeing red cars.
To: Dumpster Baby
Maybe they should replace the red car in the movie with a hybrid painted an environmentally friendly green.

"Get over it."
You don't get over the loss of a child.
I'm amazed I even have to say that.
