Instead they'll just trip over the gate and sue the railroad for that.

Nice Caltrain now has surveillance cameras to watch pedestrian crossings, I can't wait to see footage of someone getting splattered by the baby bullet

So in that picture I wonder if the gate is going up or down? Are they running to try and beat it? Sure looks like it to me.
The guy way behind will probably have to jump over it since they have all that fencing up keeping you from going around it when it is down.

No the fence has a gate that only opens one way. Also you can duck under a crossing gate.
59 second mark.
