This one road in my town, that's only one lane somehow, and has it's own crossing across a busy railway line to reach a total of 3 houses.

Those 3 houses have a right to access a roadway just as much as you or I

Agreed, but why not attach it to the side of town they're on, or at least give them a normal, full road like all the others if your going to bother the rail traffic?

I'm guessing it was a driveway originally, and crossed the tracks way back when that was no big deal, and became a public road later somehow. It's still cursed.
