The really sad news is that the technology to avoid this has been around 
and successfully used in Germany since before World War II. They call it 
Inductive Train Safeguarding or Indusi. That slows down and even brings 
trains to a full stop, overriding an offending operator. It is not 
rocket science.

Yet we have all those so-called "licensed engineers" who are supposed to 
"safeguard the public" and blah-blah, then fail on the simplest and most 
obvious points. They should never have signed and stamped such "system" 
designs. Yet they did and that has killed people over and over again.
