<p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;">Well that may be the case that you were citing a crossing example that had flashers without gates, but I don’t think that changes the point I am making. If the sound of the horn heightens the driver’s perception of the risk of trying to beat the train, it will do so for gated or un-gated crossings. It will even do so for crossings without signals or gates. Drivers try to beat the train at all of those crossing types. They also try to beat the train at crossings with full gates and/or dividing medians.</span></p>
