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.

For sure, it wouldn't be much fun, but you probably wouldn't suffer much
more than a dirty shoulder.
