    You have some real confidence in people’s common sense. Every vehicle in the fleet would be blown inside a week.

      you know trains have emergency stops that any passenger can pull, right? and yet i have never ever ever ever heard of that happening, despite trains regularly being literally full of passengers.

        One big difference is that someone pulling a train estop for no good reason has to deal with other train passengers who would be unhappy that their trip is suddenly delayed for no good reason.

        It’s a different dynamic if you’re alone or with friends/family in a car, even if pushing that estop is on a highway where it’s even more dangerous.

        It does happen, just very rarely. Partly because, at least in Germany, that is a criminal offense. Which would be the same in a car by the way.
