- A woman is awfully lucky that the Rocklin Police responded to a call about a car on the tracks on Rocklin Road. When they arrived, they found the car sitting on the railroad tracks and the driver wandering nearby. When they administered a field sobriety test, they allegedly found her blood alcohol level to be twice the legal limit. Police requested Union Pacific Railway suspend all traffic on the tracks until the vehicle could be removed. (KTXL FOX 40 Sacramento)
