Why Railroad Crossings Are A Grave Danger For Self-Driving Cars

Railroad crossings are dangerous for human drivers and for self-driving cars. That's the customary sage advice for car drivers that come upon a railroad crossing. Do you abide by that simple rules-of-the-road driving principle? In fact, you probably don't put much thought these days toward railroad crossings at all and are apt to make just a cursory glance before you zip across those bothersome railroad tracks that seem to mar the roadway ahead of you. Well, don't be quite so quick to treat railroad crossings with such little respect.
