That's a risk with all forms of transport.


Including the present arrangements for pedestrians.


There aren't many places where pedestrians or vehicles go through the

But there's nothing to stop a pedestrian simply walking into a shop or other
premises, or even simply in the street, and setting off a bomb. I understand
it's happened once or twice in various parts of the world.
