With nicer weather and more people going out, CN Rail is asking people to stay off the tracks.
A news release from the company says that trespassing on tracks is dangerous and illegal.
People who go onto the tracks can be fined $115.
In 2017, more than 222 accidents occurred in Canada, resulting in 72 fatalities and 44 serious injuries, the agency says.
When it comes to railway safety, CN says:
*Only cross railway tracks as designated public/ pedestrian crossings.
*Obey the railway crossing control devices and do not attempt to beat the train
*Before walking across any railway crossing, look both ways, listen and only proceed over the crossing when it is safe
