Inspectorate: Train Passengers in Daily Danger


The Inspectorate of Traffic has announced that train drivers regularly depart from stations without taking safety precautions. This means that train passengers are risking their lives daily. The actual procedures for drivers carry many risks. A few days ago, two full passenger trains stopped five meters from each other on the same track. The Inspectorate has analyzed 30 incidents between 2003 and 2007. Minister of Transport Camille Eurlings (Christian Democrats) has sent the findings of this report to Parliament. www.telegraaf.nl/binnenland/2534629/__Treinpassagiers_in_levensgevaar__.html?p=2,1
