Look, energy and momentum are conserved - it's not my rule, it's how things work. There is a huge amount of energy transfer going on during a collision, and human beings don't withstand that kind of energy transfer very well at all.

i am against operating push mode on lines that have 5800 ton freight trains.

The accident in question could have perhaps been prevented with a more complex signal system. The crew of the BNSF jumped off the train after engaging emergency braking, so I don't think they shared your confidence.

Also, the best thing would be to prevent the accident in the first place.

Definitely.
