Dude has four priors and is walking around freely. fukk you fakkit ass c00ns who are against a crime bill that puts garbage like this away forever.

So give me an example of what this bill could include to address situations like this?

That man is clearly mentally ill, so I would love for you to explain how a crime bill would directly address this.

I also would like to know where your grandmother is from.

this would cost billions to retrofit stations with and can only be done on stations with CBTC train (basically trains that drive themselves like the 7 and L trains and most trains that run though terminals at airports) so that the train stops at the same exact spot every time to align perfectly with the doors.

It won’t happen in our lifetime. That much I know.
I stop diesel trains in the same spots everyday. It’s more than possible, especially with electric light rail trains.

you’re expecting every driver to stop in the exact spot at every station running trains 24/7? We have some 460+ stations. It’s not happening without CBTC on every line as CBTC does stop in the exact same spot at every station by design.

Yes. Your engineer is a lot more capable than you give them credit for. It wouldn’t even be a complicated adjustment. We don’t just pull into stations praying the train stops.

The issue with platform doors on the NYC subway is the doors on the different car classes don't line up the same.


On the letter lines, some cars on 75FT, while the others are 60FT. On the numbered lines the doors doors on the newer trains don't line up the same way as the older cars. Also you gotta worry about snow messing up the doors on outdoor lines. I assume those modern systems in other countries were built with platform doors in mind so they aren't as vulnerable to snow, etc.

I’ve seen trains over shoot myself. Lmao it’s not an issue when you don’t have to align with doors but it’s slow af to have to come in to every single station at the exact same spot manually. Will add shyt tons of time with the train doing it automatically


Anyways it ain’t happening regardless so no need for a back and forth.

You’ve seen trains that were made 3 million years ago overshoot themselves. Modern tech can 10/10 make a train stop at the exact same spot every single time. And no it wouldn’t be that difficult neither.

Its easy to do when there is no real penalty. But if there is a spot that has to be hit, the focus is different. I’m just saying it’s a more than viable idea

To all of you who called this man subhuman, said he deserves death, etc. The article manipulated you and successfully planted the seeds in was intended.

I won't get into how religion, white supremacy and capitalism play into this, but if you said the bolded you should try thinking more critically, just my two cents
