Police said King tried to beat the train by pedaling around the safety gates. A witness reportedly called police to say “there was a train coming through and this person was riding his bicycle and did not stop (inaudible) and (inaudible) through the gates and he barely got hit by the train.”

So that's victim #2. But the other one was some sort of disaster, right?

Melissa Lavell, 32, was struck and killed during preview rides on Jan. 12, a day before Brightline offered its service to paying customers. Lavell tried to beat the train across the track, according to a police report. Brightline’s engineers told police that the guard gates were down at the time.

Yup, a disaster of genetics. You can't cure stupid, but you can cull it. Praise be to Darwin!
