What level on the drunk scale would you have to be not to see a train ? More likely fell of the back of a motorbike taxi as it sped around the train crossing

I can think of several incidences of people being killed on these tracks.... many just South of Siam CC area. One was claimed to be sleeping on the tracks.....
