At 10:20 a.m. on Tuesday, a collision involving an Amtrak passenger train and a car resulted in the deaths of a young North Carolina mother and her 5 year-old son. The accident occurred at the intersection of Forrest and Mount Willing roads, and persons familiar with the area claim that warning lights and crossing-arms are known to malfunction on a regular basis.

Individuals in the area claim that the warning signals that are supposed to protect drivers from accidents on the train tracks have been worked on several times and still do not function properly.
