Three teenagers in Florida were killed when they crossed a train trestle and then a train arrived and they couldn't get off the bridge.
What should the government do about this?
Choose all that apply
Require all trains to come to a complete stop before crossing bridges
Require putting up electronic gates to keep people from walking on bridges
Prosecute the parents for child neglect
Fund a series of PSAs to educate children about the danger
Require train companies to pay millions in damages to the family
Limit train speeds to 10 MPH in dangerous areas
Require signals on the bridge to warn 20 minutes in advance that a train is coming
Provide counseling to the train engineer for the horror of not being able to stop
Require signs at the bridge warning of the danger
Create in iPhone app that shows the locations of trains
Nice picture!
