Trains only honk because they can’t stop, so all they can do is warn. Cars should not be going so fast they can’t stop on city streets. Also, trains always have the right-of-way, but cars never do, even on roads without crosswalks or sidewalks. They must always yield to all pedestrians in any situation.
