Posted by TransitChuckG on Sat Dec 15 05:57:42 2007, in response to Re: Route 36 trolley accident, posted by Dan Lawrence on Fri Dec 14 23:37:13 2007. Another case of an idiot driver and streetcars on PRW.By any chance, did the offending vehicle have NJ tags? Bob Vogel told me it looked like Houston. I didn't get the license plate of the car, I took my picture from too far away. There were too many "important" people at the accident scene. Harry D. was consoling the operator and told him we'd fill out incident cards. The operator asked Harry, "How many passengers did I have on board, 80?". Harry told him , "No , about 30, he'd guess". A slight disparity there., the operator was upset. A woman passenger said she was on a trolley accident last week out here, SEPTA is going to think she is a professional complainer. Some one else yelled she was tired of these dumb m-f's that don't know how to drive. I am too but I don't think I would expressed myself with those words. There should be a system that when a trolley approaches an intersection, ALL the traffic lights turn RED , so no one tries anything stupid in either direction. We have the technology for that, they just refuse to install it. It's called Transit First. Harry D. reminded me of that. |
