@austeane @daiwaka I think the most important thing that will come out of these enquires is would a human driver have been able to avoid it. Remember the vehicle's supervisor could have overridden the system if they felt the vehicle wasn't going to stop, so did supervisor see it going to happen?

If the guards had been removed, the driver would be in charge of the doors, very little likelihood that the external cameras that the driver uses, would see you. Leaving you stranded, something for you @grantshapps @PaulMaynardUK to think about.

#GATTM Hiya, being an electric chair user, I'm very impressed with your new #LevelBoarding trains. But very concerned at the lack of effort of telling disabled passengers which stations still need ♿ ramp. Even if train is wrong way round, it can go from Level to needing ramp.

@BBCSimonMcCoy @BBCHughPym It's @realDonaldTrump fault. As a disabled guy handing out face masks at a Supermarket, it's a very risky job, you can't force them to wear it until the company and/or County have a face mask mandate. Even a scarf around the mouth is acceptable to me, or a visor.
