At the height of rush hour at 5:pm two Red Line Subway commuter trains collided killing seven people and injuring over 75 in the nations Capitol. Our prayers and thoughts go out to all the families of the dead and injured in this horrible accident.
I suspect the cause of the accident is as follows :
1.Operator Error,Negligence or Poor Judgement
2.Using the Cell Phone
3.Under the influence of Alcohol or Dangerous Drugs
4. Stress or a lack of sleep or adequate rest
5.Mechanical failure of Trains or Electronic equipment failure
6.Computer malfunction at base command(Train Warning system failure)
7. Excessive speed
8. Sabotage-Extremist right wing supremacist organization
9. Track obstruction
10. Texting while operating the trains
11. Operator fell asleep at the controls
12. Poor Training
13. Lack of adequate background check in the pre- employment process for the position of Operator.
14. Poor maintenance of Subway Trains and Tracks
15. Inspection and Safety of Trains and Tracks
16.Experience of Operators
17. Signal failure
18. Failure to act on recommendations from the NTSB,which should result in criminal indictments of all parties involved who were mandated by their respective positions to insured that all items addressed by the NTSB report were remedied in a timely fashion. If convicted these inept individuals should receive life without the possibility of Parole.
Let me know what you think about this sickening accident ?
