In Connecticut and across the country, many people think that it is okay to go onto railroad tracks and take photos. It is not. It’s not only illegal (trespassing), but it’s very dangerous. Please view, No Shot is Worth It – PSA for filming on the tracks.

There have been incidents were trucks have been struck at rail crossings. Operation Lifesaver has recently produced a new public service announcement for truck safety for dump, concrete and garbage trucks. Please view - Truck Driver Safety
