Not to the degree of railroads. When was the last time you drove a car or truck that displayed the next traffic light on your dashboard? or had an automatic vehicle stop device installed? or drove on a road where your movements had to be dictated by a remote dispatcher?
Most of what I’m referring to has to do with passenger train movements at 80 mph or faster.
sounds like the regs you are talking about are REQUIRED for train safety reasons; the poor things!!!
