Railroad Accidents
When a pedestrian or a motor vehicle comes into contact with a moving train the
outcome is almost always tragic. Sometimes accidents involving trains occur due
to the negligence of the driver of the motor vehicle or pedestrian. However, sometimes
the train engineer, the railroad, or another party may be liable. Railroad crossings
are sometimes substandard or in disrepair. Sometimes crossings are not secured
by crossbars and the vision of approaching vehicles may be obscured by another
stopped train.
