2016, d remarked: David Icke is usually for entertainment value only , but this is just hideously disrespectful to the people who died and were hurt. I know the man is borderline mentally ill, but I can't help thinking he should lose a few teeth over this one. Incitement to violence. That's illegal. -- Roland Perry |

Seriously, the guy is a utter **** for saying this and I wouldn't lose any sleep if he got duffed up over it. Won't happen of course but one can hope. -- Spud |

IIRC, there are timed signals along the line. TPWS-for-trams, anyone? -- Roland Perry The latest from the BBC is that it was a Wimbledon-bound train that derailed after taking a 12mph corner too fast. Explains why the driver has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter. They are also investigating if he was asleep. Apparently trams aren't fitted with devices to apply the brakes if travelling too fast. but, according to the BBC, they are fitted with devices that apply the brakes if the driver falls asleep Ever stranger and stranger tim Not dissimilar to the incident in Hoboken, in one sense. |
