Metro Safety : Oxymoron?

At Clark and Steinhorn we've been complaining about Metro and its safety problems for a while. Which is to say that we've pursued personal injury and wrongful death claims against Metro and area transit agencies for more than 25 years.

Ever since Mr. Clark served as lead trial counsel against Metro in  the 16th Street bus crash more than a decade ago, we have been aware of continuing safety problems on the trains and buses of Maryland, District of Columbia and Virginia.

So today's Washington Post report on Metro's ongoing safety problems is no great suprise. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/12/25/AR2009122501882.html?hpid=moreheadlines

The problem is that unless good oversight is combined with sufficient funds, competent management and safety transparency very little will change.
