One problem with the tracks near my house is that we only have flashing lights, no bar that comes down. Numerous times a month, the lights malfunction and flash when there is no train. I always stop and look carefully before I go through them, but I have seen people get complacent and just go without looking. The train comes around a curve so if you don't pay attention, you could easily get hit. I also see idiots stop for a red light and find themselves straddling the tracks. They have nowhere to go if a train comes while they're stopped there.
