Metrolink Accident: California Bans Text Messaging by Train Operators
September 20, 2008 – 7:34 amThe California Public Utility Commission passed an emergency order banning text messaging by anyone at the controls of a moving train following last week’s Metrolink accident. Federal investigators have confirmed that the engineer of the Metrolink train involved in the deadly Metrolink accident in Chatsworth was sending text messages while on the job. Amazingly there were no state or federal rules prohibiting the use of cellular devices while operating a train.
