Train hits car, kills woman



Witnesses say she didn't try to get out of the way



By Kristina Peterson and Melanie Carroll / Daily News Staff Writers



A woman was killed Thursday afternoon in Palo Alto when a northbound Caltrain express train struck her car and dragged it underneath for about half a mile, according to police.



Around 4:45 p.m., a "Baby Bullet" train struck the woman's maroon Toyota Camry, which was stopped on the tracks at East Meadow Drive, said Officer Max Nielepko of the Palo Alto Police Department. Her age and identity were unknown as of press time.

I hope so. Reading the story, I'm not so sure. Sounds like she was right behind another car when the gate came down on her roof. Some people might get freaked out and freeze up. Sad. Darwin theory, maybe?
