You can’t fix stupid. I live in south Florida near the deadliest stretch of railway in the country. There are crossing arms, bells, and lights at every intersection that I have on multiple occasions watched drivers ignore and drive around. I saw one very, very near miss and the aftermaths of several not-so misses. The Brightline that was originally supposed to average about 70mph (115k/h) now operates at 40 (65 k/h)
