Posted by RonInBayside on Fri Mar 6 01:24:00 2009, in response to Metrolink allowed teenage railfans to operate controls...and more, posted by Easy on Thu Mar 5 21:17:22 2009. Pure and simple.He ignored repeated instructions by superiors; ignored multiple basic safety rulesallowed teens to operate his train, paid more attention to his cellphone than the signals and track; blew past a red light without any thought, and killed 25 people, injuring many more. I'm glad they fired the Connex managers. If I allowed somebody like Sanchez to do what he did on my watch, I'd probably want to jump off a roof. They had plenty of warning that this doofus should not have been operating a train. The bullshit statement issued by Connex as to how wonderful Sanchez was, was motivated solely to try to stave off a lawsuit against Connex. Well, it's over. |
