The BEST Solution for MRT Platforms
-
This really takes the cake, it's the best solution after so many incidences of people falling off or leaping onto the MRT track and dying.
So, what a FINE soltion this is: $500 Fine for Anyone Crossing the Yellow Line.
BRAVO!
Nothing gets the attention of Singaporeans like threatening their pockets!
So, for all those who just wanna die, there's no stopping them. And those who don't wanna die and wants to keep their money, should stay behind the yellow line.
NOW, the Yellow Line means something - $500. -
so who's so eng to be there monitoring?? or do something like step on it and the feet will ganna stuck and then people come catch you??

curious: if you walk and just step over the zone accidentally?
i heard of some countries where the person who falls into the train tracks and causes disruption to train services, the immediate family have to pay for the consequences. -
Wah! Like dat I think the suiciders must think twice about choosing MRT station.Originally posted by kuekj:curious: if you walk and just step over the zone accidentally?

What is the cost of building a modest safety sensor system which will trigger a shrill alarm in the event of passengers crossing over the yellow lines?
At least this sensor will practically provide some check even if accidents cannot be prevented in many cases.
Compared with providing manpower for 18 hours a day, isn't this sensor system far more effective.
What is the appreciation in land values at MRT stations. At a small fraction of the total land appreciation, Singapore can easily provide a safer MRT system. What happen if a few children are to be hurt due to carelessness?

Well a case of a boy who cries wolf ehh? Soon alarms will be a norm and nobody cares until somebody dies. And the whole damn vicious cycle restarts again.Originally posted by the Bear:i see the alarms going off when brats play on the platform while their irresponsible parents look on -
btw what the used for $500 fine, if ppl wanna jump..govt take from who? send the bill to hell huh? or family member?
i got 1 good idea lah..the MRT slow down to 10-20km/h (dont know what the actual safty speed,must call pro to estimates )when reaching the station . how much time waste? i tell u , about 1 min per train. but we can increase train trips . until undergound then the train can stop as usual.
how the idea? -
In japan, the immediate family members must pay both the train operators and the passengersfor the lost incurred due to delays. So that will probably add up to 100s of thousand bucks. So between 500 bucks or a few hundred thousand buck, which one do you want?Originally posted by paperduck:btw what the used for $500 fine, if ppl wanna jump..govt take from who? send the bill to hell huh? or family member?

SMRT should consider the following:
>> In-line infra red sensors from end to end to be active when train is
approaching.
>> Triggered when commuters break the line of sight between sensors
emitting a shrill alarm and also triggering overhead digital camera to take pictures of trespassers
>> Increase the FINE to $1,000.00 -
The BEST Solution Is, Dont Take The MRT

yah yah.... activate more digital cams..... where to get money to install digital cams?? from us the commuters... maybe next time take mrt minimum one trip $5. cool.Originally posted by ShutterBug:SMRT should consider the following:

i think there shld be another lane for the mrt at all the above ground mrt stations. otherwise, commuters will waste alot of time to stop at one station, then take bus to another and take the train again.
