Technically, tight curve radius was too close to speed limit. They increased the curve radius after the accident.
Human factors: the work culture in JR led to the driver being under extreme stress & nervous breakdown |

QUOTE(PLOUFFLE @ Apr 26 2015, 10:37 AM) who said sinkanshen no accident?? This is not shinkansen but normal train like our Komuter, even runs on tracks with similar spec to Malaysian (Cape Gauge 1067mm) Shinkansen is on separate network using standard (1435mm) gauge This post has been edited by joe_star: Apr 26 2015, 10:47 AM |

QUOTE(sheahann @ Apr 26 2015, 10:20 AM) Watched full report in national geographic channel. Yep....imho the work culture is too strict & easily can cause driver error. They would be better off automating & having driver there for emergency/non standard operations.Macam is due to strict work procedure. Late few seconds only but driver decide to speed over the curve if not late abit wil Kena discipline issue. Meanwhile in Malaysia. Gua lambat u tak suka u keluarrr Meanwhile here....ive seen the driver get out of the Komuter, walk to the side of the platform & kencing  |
