An exception to what?We want the train's engineer to be 100% in control of his train's movements, not taking personal calls or texting or checking the Mets v. braves score or listening to his voicemail, etc. The principle behind the rules forbidding use of electronic devices is that the engineer shouldn't be distracted by that which isn't duty related. Safe operation of a train is an important enough job that distraction shouldn't have to enter into it for excitement. |
