Just last weekend I was biking along Father David Bauer next to the Perimeter Institute and I see two people cluelessly walking down the tracks, inside the fence.
I think when we know there is no danger of a train coming, we tend to let our guard down. This is why we needed to make an example out of those who park on the tracks now. Unfortunately, this example hasn't yet been made.... (I passed a taxi this morning outside the bus terminal parked immediately in front of the giant no stopping signs.)
I guess it doesn't help that the GrandLink workers use the tracks as a parking lot as well... this leads to the mob mentality of if its OK for one, its OK for all....
