Amtrak Train Strikes Dearborn City Employee on Tractor - Dearborn, MI Patch

Appears to me the cab saved her from more serious injuries, on the other hand maybe she could have gotten off quicker if there was no cab.

carefull out there

I have some experience in this...
Getting hit by a train is not fun, even if there isn't anyone hurt...(or in my case where somebody claimed, but was proven to be preexisting.)

I was told by a lawyer that in this type of case the train is never at fault. Old case law made back when the railroads ruled.

Very few cases ever put a train at fault. In my accident, I was ticketed, but the ticket was dropped when the police officer was shown the trains rulebook that stated the train was supposed to be stopped at that crossing whenever doing what it was doing.
