Are you afraid of the things that go down when a train is coming? Have they ever knocked someone unconscious?

Question

I have this fear of crossing the railroad tracks. The evil things are there it seems waiting to come down at the moment when I choose to cross the tracks. It's like they are saying "gotcha hee hee hee". I always fear that they are gonna hit me over the head and knock me out unconsciously.

Answer 1

if you are talking about the gate that come down to stop

traffic

they wont hurt you some of them are fail safe if they  bump

an obect lots of them they would reserve themelves so

what ever they bump can get out of the way

and remember

or they wont come down at all (if something is in their way)

Answer 2

I see your mother backed her pickup truck over your leg again.  You need to go back to the Free Clinic and ask for a different pain medication, because the one they gave you is causing you to hallucinate.

Good luck!

Answer 3

1.  Never fear them.  They don't move fast enough, far enough, to render someone unconscious.

2.  ALWAYS respect them.

3.  Never TRUST them.  They are not fail-safe.  The only way to safely cross ANY tracks is to stop, look and listen, and if on foot, never step on the rail.  This is when you'll be knocked unconscious after slipping on one rail and bashing your head on the other.

Here's a star for a good safety question...
