The problem I have with it is demonstrated by the 
following equation:

      train + car -> train. 

Note that the car has ceased to exist on the right hand side
of the equation

This is exactly the reason. This ignores the fact that lights or
no lights, people are going to become impatient or careless. Its
a fact of physics that if the path of a car and a train never
cross, they can't hit one another. Arguments about personal
responsibility and natural select not withstanding.

That is correct. The first stages of the outer loop.
