Default Victoria Line

As the Victoria line is entirely underground, I assume that even if the
doors on the wrong side are opened, the tunnel wall will be near enough
that no-one could actually fall very far (as oppose to the empty space
on a surface line platform). So this feature is presumably less
important on this line than any other?


If you're squeezed against the door on that side because people are
waiting on the other side of the vestibule to get off I think you'd be
rather perturbed if the doors opened behind you and deposited you
against the tunnel wall.
