No; I understand that by the wording of the regulation, I shouldn't have gone through.
In real life though, I had time basically interpret the signal and make the decision to slam on my brakes, or proceed through.
I probably could have stopped, but would have basically been slamming them on to stop before the stop line.

It just seems odd that there is no "warning" between the crossing being activated and when you have to stop, akin to a yellow vs red light. Reaction time is between .5-2 seconds, so if the crossing activates, and it takes you a few seconds to react, you could easily be too close to make a reasonable stop, but technically outside of the distance that is stated in the regulation.
