[quote user="Ulrich"] But both incidents TOGETHER sure peek interest and make one wonder about a possible larger problem. The scope of the investigation should focus on the larger problem as simply proving the obvious (that Sanchez was in the wrong) would be an egregous waste of money. The best outcome of the investigation would be some indication of how bad the problem really is so that preventative measures can be taken to avert further accidents of this type. Everyone already knows Sanchez screwed up... no investigation is needed to see that. [/quote] I disagree.  Finding the facts of the crash is exactly what the investigation was supposed to do.  From the start, it seemed like the fault had to belong to Sanchez.  One might say that it was obvious.  But you cannot just assume that the obvious is true in such a crash.  It takes an investigation, and conducting one is not a waste of money.   <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> What would be a waste of money and possibly flaw the investigation would be to go looking for larger systemic illegal activity by train crews, and then conclude that what Sanchez did was only what a lot of employees do, and therefore it is the company’s fault for not realizing that they have a widespread problem.   In my opinion, that is exactly what the mainstream media is doing.  They make a victim out of Sanchez.  They go after their favorite villain; corporations.  And they set the stage for more government regulation of the industry.
