Doesn't WMATA have a different setup of third rail that's harder to cross safely as compared to NYCT or LIRR?

The tunnel walkway is on the side of the tunnel where the lights are, the third rain is on the other side. In the case of the tunnel between Collage Park and Prince Georges's Plaza one would not have to step over the third rail to reach an emergency exit shaft or the Georges's Plaza station platform. One would have to crossover to the other side of the tunnel before reaching the tunnel portal if evacuating in the direction of the Collage Park platform.
