      train/rail infrastructure really does need to be isolated from carbrains. i live in a small city with a little freight rail switching (as a treat). much of the rail is elevated over street traffic, but there are a few roads where it's not with the crossing bars and lights. at certain times of day (really only late afternoon 5pm-ish), those roads can be a little stop-n-go on week days. i was on one just the other day and when i get to the tracks, of course i don't cross over until i have room on the other side, because sometimes the traffic won't move for 4-5 minutes.

      i was literally the only one that did this out of the dozen+ people i saw. everyone else just blocked it when their turn came. thank fuck no train was coming then. but this shit is inevitable in america, because i literally see the conditions for it all the time.

      the burgerlanders only think of their yummy treatos and will straddle a fucking railroad if it means they can pull forward 4 feet in the majestic line of petroleum chariots.
