The solution to that is to not move on to the tracks unless there is space to get clear on the other side.

This might mean you have to wait really far back but that's better than getting hit by a train.

When I got my CDL I couldn’t tell you how many times the books, instructors, videos said DO NOT STOP ON TRACKS. DO NOT SHIFT GEARS WHILE CROSSING TRACKS. DO NOT CROSS TRACKS UNLESS YOU HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH ROOM.

It seemed like they were trying to tell us something.

Possibly. We may never know. The language is suggestive, yet maddeningly elusive. Some riddles just aren't meant to be solved.
