The answer to this is education. My department has been through an Operation Lifesaver program, so now we know better (the example of a locomotive hitting a car being like a car hitting a beercan struck home with us.) If I and my partner are on a call, lights and sirens going, we might- just might- blow through a gate, but not without looking. Incidentally, many cell phones allow us to clearly communicate with our dispatchers or supervisors when we are in radio dead spots... contrary to popular opinion, most of the time we are not calling for take out from Dunkin' Donuts). Anyway, Lifesaver turned a few of us from being idle observers into railfans.
