Stand by for the government to order up a bunch of “Please do not stick body parts in the path of an oncoming train” signs. Because otherwise, how would you ever know not to?
Seriously, after the woman up in Valhalla, NY stopped her car on the Metro-North tracks and killed 6, some politician said PTC would have prevented it:
Rep. Patrick Maloney, D-N.Y., said Tuesday's accident underscores the need for positive train control, a technology that uses WiFi and GPS to monitor trains' exact position and automatically applies the brakes to prevent collisions or lessen their severity. While not specifically designed to address grade-crossing accidents, the technology can be expanded for such purposes, he said.
PTC is just your average everyday DemocRAT swindle for BILLIONS of Dollars to misapply to a problem of people NOT DOING THEIR JOBS, or simply "needing killing".
