To many accidents happen with trains and other vehicles for too many times that we can prevent. The guy mentioned that maybe if the person simply looked both ways to see the train, he would have never hit the vehicle and accidentally kill that person. What I noticed in the second video is that friends were there to help them make the right choices, usually the passenger or the friend leading the other one. It is good that the friend is their to help, but what will that person do when they are alone without the guidance and wisdom from their friends. They will become the one of many causalities that we could have prevented.
If Zalman had made the right decision and kept going, it could have been possible that Zalman would live another day, but his own decision prevented it. Throughout the whole novel, Ellie had to watch mankind slowly become uncivilized as the smallest things turned people into animals, “And the spectators observed these emaciated creatures ready to kill for a crust of bread… I decided not to move. Anyway, I knew that I would not be strong enough to fight off dozens of violent men”(101, Wiesel) Around the end of the novel, Ellie and the rest of the starved survivors had to go through another long train ride with only bread that the spectators threw at them. The people in the cargo went crazy for the food like wild animals, making it seem like they had no control over their actions. However, Ellie’s resistance to getting the food proves that each person has their own ability to control what they do, and acting like animals for food
Kids under the age of 12 should be able to ride dirt bikes A kid doesn’t get to ride his dirt bike because he might chew on the battery, or possibly eat the cables and get lead poisoning. To any human that is not mentally challenged should realize that is ridiculous. I have ridden a dirt bike since I was five years old and I have never once thought about chewing on the battery. Chewing on lead, not being able to get parts, and stopping the circulation of the economy are all factors. Many people have heard of babies chewing on a toy and getting lead poisoning, but that law has been pushed too far when people start taking dirt bikes off the market because they have lead based products.
In this incident health and safety plays a major role as the AWS (Automatic Warning System) was defective and not checked beforehand if it was in working order or not which increases the risks of collisions occurring, also the driver was paying no attention to the red signals that time which spells danger SPAD (Signal Passed At Danger), in this case the driver actions were not acceptable where he was supposed to keep his eyes upfront at all times regardless of what may occur with him. Scenario 1: China Air Line 611 Crash In this scenario the crash was the most intensifying and shocking crash I’ve seen all due to a fail check up of the previous tail crash which was only temporarily repaired 22 years later after that incident with the tail, not only was there tiny repairs were made, but the person in charge of the repairs failed to find the origin of what happen 22 years ago, thus causing this horrific
Bob is faced with a choice, throw a switch and divert the train right into his car, losing his investment, or let the train go resulting in the death of the child. Bob lets the train go. Singer argues that Bob’s conduct is wrong, for the greatest happiness he should have thrown the switch and saved the boy. He then reminds us that we too have the opportunity to save the lives of children, but like Bob, we do not. Children across the world are dying from hunger, dehydration,
A truck honked at him, then yelled out the window calling him an idiot, but the driver didn’t realize he had autism. This situation seems very sad to me because Raymond didn’t understand that he should of continued to cross the street even though the sign said, “don’t walk”. 3. This movie gave a very realistic portrayal of the psychological concept. The actor who played Raymond executed the role perfectly.
However in the final scene of the play Scripps says “So I think that, since Irwin had never been on the back of a bike before, going round the corner he leaned out instead of in and so unbalanced Hector.” It can also be suggested that Irwin wanted Hector dead because he wanted the high position that the Headmaster offered him. Although Irwin wouldn’t have risked his own life to heighten his teaching position as this would have been a pure loss of talent. Irwin’s teaching method is incredibly different to both that of Hector and Ms Lintott. Irwin teaches the boys how to pass an exam, whereas both Hector and Ms Lintott teach the boys far more valuable things which will help them throughout their
The North Carolina State Highway Patrol said no criminal charges would be filed against the driver of the Amtrak train or the truck-trailer. The 164-foot-long truck had an oversized load, but the state has no notification requirements for oversized or overweight vehicles crossing the rails. As a result of the accident, authorities had to close N.C. 903 U.S. 301 and N.C. 125 for both directions and set up a detour. The accident happened at about 12:15 p.m. but the damaged train was cleared at about 11
No one knows what can happen so saing there is no such thing and I don’t need to prepare are vital life changing mistakes. What happens if you wreck your car in the middle of nowhere and you have no knowledge of what to do? People say oh your smart you’ll be fine, but that’s because they think oh it won’t happen to me or I think I know everything I need to. But that’s where ignorance has gotten to people’s brains. Just because I’ve camped in my back yard and lived means I can do it in the middle of nowhere and chances are those people are going to die.
The lack of teamwork within GM was one obstacle in pursuing the project. Many managers felt that the company had already invested billions in developing fuel cells and didn’t want to switch gears all of a sudden. Also, lack of trust and other managers were scared of another failure of an electric car. A lack of commitment from the start of the project was also an issue. If Lutz and Burns had the managers on the same page and assured them of the potential success of the volt, there would have been less hesitation.
