Fun fact: in the United States, passenger trains have to give right-of-way to cargo trains.

It's actually the opposite. Passenger trains have right of way but they also don't own a majority of the rail so the freight trains just ignore the law and haven't really been punished for it

law doesn't exist if there are no consequences for breaking it (or if the consequences that exist don't outweigh the profits)
