Aniceé over at Aniceé’s Digital Existence wrote about how she has been on a TriMet bus not once… but twice when it has crashed into something. Wow, how unlucky! I agree with her on this point:
“However, I will say this; I would much rather be in an accident on a Trimet than in a car. Ya get jerked around a bit on Trimet, but it’s more like driving over a beat-up speed-bump than hitting a car. Just a quick little bump-n-jerk.”
Very true…

Well, remember to compare apples to apples. A severe wreck on a transit mode (i.e. train etc) is much less likely to happen because they’re just safer. Cars wreck, often far more dangerously and more likely to inflict fatality, than a transit vehicle.
But when a transit vehicle does wreck, all hell truly breaks loose. Case in point is the MetroLiner that head on hit the Union Pacific freight in SoCal few days ago. Very very very bad.
