People tend to assume train accidents are open-and-shut. However, there could be extenuating circumstances, and it’s worth being thorough in the investigations. Was there an issue with the crossing guards or signals? Was there an emergency? Was alcohol involved? Does this crossing have obstructed sight lines? Likely or not, it’s important to consider the full picture before trying to draw conclusions.
