<p>[quote user="jeffhergert"]The Palantine officer stresses not crossing in front of a stopped train. Almost to the point one might think it's OK to cross in front of moving trains if one thinks it's a "safe" distance away. The stopped train isn't the one that's going to be running over people. It's going to be the one they don't see or think it far enough away.</p> <p>Jeff [/quote]</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">I agree.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They say that crossing in front of a stopped train is the greatest danger. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What is the problem with crossing in front of a stopped train?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Wouldn’t the greatest danger be in crossing in front of an approaching train?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">It sounds like they want to apply bicycle culture, which is where bicyclists don’t have to stop for red lights or stop signs unless there is a car coming.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You know, it’s one of those “personal liberty things.”</span></span></span></p>
