This happened to me WHEN I WAS WALKING by Newport mall. I go to cross the tracks and I I look up to my left and the light rail train is stopping short 2 feet from my face. The operator raises his hands to say “what the fuck” and then I point at the light and the walk signal. Not sure if it was operator error or the traffic signal was fucked up

Have you reported this anywhere?

That’s happened to me before as well at that exact same light.

The light rail is supposed to wait for red, conductor probably decided to go early.

Yeah I posted about the same exact intersection but it's not just limited to here. I get it all the time at other crossings.

I suggest compiling the links to the numerous reddit posts into an email and forwarding that to all council members and the mayor. If anyone wants I will be doing so and will post the links on this thread so you can copypasta

Or, maybe the light rail conductor failed to observe a signal telling him to stop. Without visual proof of the train signal, it's impossible to tell what happened here. But, honestly, if I was betting, I would go with the theory that the conductor is at fault.

Yes. Submit this picture also. The city will forward to NJ Transit, who controls the intersection signals.

Probably because it’s malfunctioning ?

I don't know who you should report this to, but please report it somewhere. Maybe seeclickfix? I feel like I've seen this exact situation at this intersection before.

The rent is too high and the place is pretty empty usually when I go in

They're actually evacuating the entire Hoboken hospital due to lack of water, too great a fire risk. What a shitshow.

Ooo ok, I was talking about waiting room wait actually but the initial appointment wait is also important.

Now you know why there are so many cases of cars hitting trains here.

Interesting response. Would you agree that some people on this sub may be interested in the misuse of Covid funds to fund a trip to Paris for Steven Fulop, Joyce Watterman, Mira Prinz-Arey, Kate Davis, Christine Goodman, John Metro, Annisia Cialone and Diana Jeffrey?

Yeah, the signal is hard to see (box on the pole, to left of orange the "moderalofts.com" sign), but it looks like it's showing a horizontal bar. Pretty sure the train was supposed to wait.
