The Amtrak bill was a bill to improve safety on Amtrak trains that would include equipment that could have prevented the recent Commuter train accident in California that killed several people and injured 130.
That was a pretty stupid move on McCain's part.
The equipment that would have prevented that accident was the drivers two eyes getting his fckn face out of a cell phone and onto the tracks.
Yeah, why don't you tell that to the guy. Oh yeah.. he's dead.
Well, his own stupidity caused his own death plus the death of others. Can't say as I feel much sorrow for him.
So you think we should forego technology that can slow trains if they pass a red light or jump the tracks and instead just rely on human judgment.. because that's what you've implied.
You'd better hope the engineer doesn't faint
