<p>[quote user="blownout cylinder"]</p> <p>That's because you couch it in terms of absolute infallibility. </p> <p>If one can keep the rate of death or injury down then fine.</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">I</span>nfallible</span> was only a term I used as shorthand to describe solving the problem as much as could be expected. When I mentioned infallible crossing protection, I was referring to solving the problem by improving crossing protection; as opposed to solving it by grade separation and eliminating crossings. That was my response to those who insist the only way to solve the problem is to eliminate crossings. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">So let me back up and say we could reduce grade crossing crashes by 99.9999% of the number of crashes on average today by the best crossing protection system currently available. How's that? </span></span></p>
