It's a real thing, trains are dangerous, you will get a fine if you try to cross them at the wrong location

Yes, that's the primary reason we need self-driving cars and human-wearable beacons. Those track crossing fines are destroying our nation!

Living in Switzerland the biggest national concern is all the people constantly dying when people illegally cross train tracks.

Just recently we had to call in the military to protect the train tracks, people just constantly crossing train tracks. Trains constantly driving over hordes of people is really slowing down the economy.

If there only was some kind of technology to would tell people if its safe to cross or not.

I predict Switzerland will collapse in the next 2-3 years if they don’t replace their national rail network with underground tunnels for Tesla cars.

Its a real thing in a very few cases when a train system is really, really, really badly designed. A train system designed to move massive cargo around from mines to big cities.

I live in the country that most people agree has the best trains in the world. Illegal crossing of trains is basically a non issue. It barley ever happens, its almost never discussed, its not in the media much at all.

The amount of issue the country has because of trains is almost 0, with freak accidents where some teenagers swim in the river and then climb onto a railway bridge.

Cars that are being replaced are about 1000x more of a problem for safety. Trains are universally safer and every traveler that moves from a car to a train is a waste improvement in safety.

It actually can be, tracks split the city as much as a river does. They create similar dynamics in terms of both sides of the tracks becoming enclaves with different characteristics, similar to how the parts of a city on opposite banks of a river are often very different.
