Sorry, that was lost in translation. By "conductor", I meant "driver". All the metro trains that I know have only one personnel on board, the driver.
Also, what do you mean by "dragging"? People or clothes getting stuck in a door? It seems to be very important, but I've never heard of this being a large problem in practice.
- downerending 7y agoDragging as in clothes, backpack, or an arm caught in a door, or someone falling in the crevice between the train and platform, or trying to "surf" the train, etc. Not sure, but I think incidents happen with some regularity in NY. If you haven't seen it, it might be hard to visualize just how out-of-date and decrepit some of this infrastructure is. I never saw anyone injured, but I did see a couple of close calls that still make me shudder.
