Definately not! It is these R/S doors that keep the scum in the other car and not in yours! Yes, they'll be no escaping anti-social behaviour come the S Stock. |

If the legal system required that people take responsibility for themselves and any injuries they cause themselves, then things would be different. I shall not got any further here, as I don't wish to turn this thread into another rant about the health and safety culture. It does, to a certain extent. The word "reasonable" is usually in there - e.g. did the company take reasonable safeguards to ensure that x didn't happen? It depends on how wide a margin the person doing the risk assessment uses. |

At least on NR there are a pair of doors and corridor connection between carriages. On the class 378 (as an example), you practically have to walk the entire length of the unit to escape anti-social behaviour. |

The doors are dangerous full stop. I was on a District line train sitting at the end of the carriage, the door was shut and whilst the train was in motion some silly bi**h coming from the other carriage opened the door which cracked me on my foot. Piffle! You were not expecting it to happen, and as is the wont of modern society you would like to apportion blame. The new S stock will solve this as we all know but the problem will remain for the deep level tube stock. Did you have a bad experience with a hinged door as a child - or are all doors sliding in your home? The doors aren't dangerous per se - what is dangerous is the generations of people who expect every eventuality to be explained to them! It's not really your fault for thinking that, I suppose you don't know any better.  ;D My opinions are just that...my opinion. And what does my childhood have anything to do with this topic? Edited by SE13 to remove the personal insult.

Is there not a clause somewhere saying safety shoes should be worn at all times by customers standing or sitting adjacent to the inter- connecting door. ;D |

Perhaps these doors could be fitted with one of those "self-closing" devices (usually a stout-spring-and-damper-type mechanism)?
