Yeah the conductor can, when he/she is at the door controls, and not even paying attention enough to know that the engineer either stopped short or overran and pops the doors open with a car or two off the platform, or even the wrong side!! And the people who ride the trains are so wired to go off when the doors open, you would be surprised how someone can fall off not even knowing the car is off the platform.Or how about chatting on the phone so much, they are too preoccupied to know they have split a switch, didn't see and upcoming derail applied, or passed a red.....they endanger their own life and those they work with!!! |
