It is a sad thing but I gotta go with #1.
I used to live less than 100ft from a railroad track. All along those tracks was a wide sandy area that made a perfect sandbox. I used to play there often. But even as a 6 yr old I knew enough to stay a little ways away from the tracks. There were small bushes along the tracks and I made sure I kept any of those bushes between me and the tracks. I knew if those bushes were fine there would be no train that would be wide enough to hit me. Even so I would move back even farther when any trains did come.
To walk along the tracks like that was sheer stupidity, even off to the side a small bit.
