Actually, unless there are extenuating circumstance (like getting rear ended into the tracks) you can get into quite a lot of trouble for hitting a train or being hit by one. The train is on a fixed path and is does not slow down very quickly. The flashing lights give warning well in advance. It is car drivers responsibility (having more freedom to get out of the way) to do everything necessary to make sure it is out of the trains path.

Guess I wasnt thinking of that since the way they worded the article made ut sound suspect whether the lights were on, but yes that definitely sounds accurate
Eta: went back and reread it, sounds like the news really has no idea, just that they hadnt confirmed whether the lights were flashing.
