What it shows is that these people are tresspassing and when they get hit they want to sue the RRs. Some woman's son got hit on his own poor decision and now mom is looking to blame somebody for his bad decision. Oh my poor baby got hit but it wasn't his fault. My question is this: What if a 16 year old boy was out trudging around some natural rock formations on public land. Now said boy makes a poor decision and steps too close to the edge and sadly he falls to his death. Now these formations were made by natures water eroding action. Does the mother shake her fist at God and file suit against him? Fire up a web site about how God should have protected against this tragedy. Put on the web site how to properly sue God? Bottom line, people make bad choices and do error. Sometimes the price is their life. Quit being sue happy and face that people are not infallable and do screw up. And when that happens, there is not always somebody else to blame. Remember, the car is in the right of way. The train is not swerving down the road. If there is a doubt if the crossing is clear of train traffic, stop and look. Very simple. Sorry Mike, but, we can't stop and wipe your *** at every crossing. You have to be responsible as well.
