According to statistics compiled by the Federal Railroad Administration, 94 percent of train-vehicle collisions are the result of the driver disregarding the warning devices at crossings and are completely preventable. So please, never attempt to beat a train at a crossing, always comply with the crossing warning devices and wait for the gates to completely return to an upright position before driving through a crossing. Never drive around lowered gates unless directed to do so by a uniformed police officer or member of the train crew.
