Thank you to @maddcalifornia for all their efforts to prevent drunk and drugged driving within our communities.

PLEASE WATCH: Train Safety PSA 🛤️
↔️ Always look both ways. Trains can come from any direction, at any time.
🚧 Only cross railroad tracks at a designated crossing. Designated crossings are marked by a sign, lights or a gate.
🚦If lights are flashing or the gate is down at a railroad crossing, wait for the train to pass completely and the gate to go back up before crossing. It is never okay to try and beat the train.
🚶🏽♀️Don’t be tempted to walk on or along the tracks. Trains are at least three feet wider than the tracks on either side.
🚆A train can take up to a mile to stop. By the time the locomotive engineer sees someone or something on the tracks ahead; it is too late to stop.
