in order to kill them.

All it shows is how stupid Floridians are.

It also shows the failure of the state and cities:
"Public grade crossings are roadways that are under the jurisdiction of, and maintained by, a public authority."
https://railroads.dot.gov/program-areas/highway-rail-grade-crossing/highway-rail-grade-crossings-overview]

The railroads must maintain the crossings but the various governments decide and apparently pay for them with millions of federal dollars available to them from the FRA.

Individuals are responsible for their own stupidity including not going around gates and not trespassing on RR property, like tracks.
