I bet people inside the train can and will get injured with these collisions, plus the costs to repair the trains, delay the operations, etc, there is a lot of issues resulting from not mitigating human stupidity.

Well, maybe some of these local communities along the route would have some funds to build the quad gates if they had not spent so much money on lawyers opposing the Brightline trains. FYI, there were freight trains running along this route long before 1900. These trains on this route just did not appear overnight, they have been here for a really long time.
