In short:

Footage has emerged of a moving Sydney Metro's carriage door being left wide open during Wednesday morning's commute.

The driverless metro service was running between Chatswood and Crows Nest about 8am.

What's next?

The incident is now under investigation, with the Rail, Tram and Bus Union calling on Sydney Metro to stop operations until interim safety measures are implemented.

Yeah, that’s not very typical. I’d like to make that point.

I'm becoming disturbed about the number of interviews that Senator Collins is being required to give....

The 'front is falling off' too many things.

[–] SenatorCollins@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Well, some of them are built so that the front doesn’t fall off at all.

I was hoping you might show up 😆

Tell me, though, how is it un-typical?

[–] SenatorCollins@aussie.zone 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well there are a lot of these metro trains going around Sydney all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that metro trains aren’t safe.

[–] zero_gravitas@aussie.zone 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Was this metro train safe?

[–] SenatorCollins@aussie.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Well, I was thinking more about the other ones.
