Railroad tracks are controlled environments, specifically because it takes a long time to stop a train (and a train can't swerve out of the way, either). Except at authorized grade crossings, where pedestrians and motorists are permitted to cross the tracks under limited circumstances, only trains belong on tracks. A train operator has no reason to expect that anything other than another train will be on the track in front of him.City streets are uncontrolled environments. Pedestrians are to be expected. Drivers have to watch out for them. |
