OTTAWA, April 27, 2015 /CNW/ – Every year, approximately 100 Canadians die or suffer serious injuries on railway tracks they should not be on.

Operation Lifesaver, a not-for-profit organization sponsored by Canada's railway industry and Transport Canada, has organized Rail Safety Week (RSW) for 12 years. This year, OL has planned some 500 activities during the week, including presentations in schools, mock collisions and crossing blitzes.

Everyday choices like wearing headphones, taking a photo, taking a shortcut can cut your life short, or your body.

Before you go tag a bridge, ride the rails on a skateboard, jump the tracks on your snowboard or stage a wedding photo on a bridge, think:

“Will this be a good day without my legs?”
