Idiot……
You don’t play chicken with trains.
His entitlement mentality probably told him the train would stop for him.

That was my first thought too. I didn’t want to admit it, and and I knew that didn’t make any sense, so what could it mean?.....”Oh!”
“Crossed Arms”, meaning the log wooden road blocks, that come down when the red lights begin to flash, when train comes in, the one’s we must obey.
Duh!

The train always wins. A friend of mine used to call it "The Law of Sizes".
