Let's just call a spade a spade.
The city was too cheap to design these right, and it's costing lives, regardless of if people are morons with their faces glued to their phones. It is a condition of society now, that posting the dessert you had at Swiss Chalet in your activity feed, over rides every other single thing in the world, because the world must know how awesome that dessert was, RIGHT NOW!
This stupidity has to be adapted to, because you are not going to change the masses.
The city was cheap asses, and now people are getting cut in half by trains, while hundreds of people get to watch and be traumatized for life. There is no other excuse for these horrid station designs.
You wanna run around and tout your city as world class.... Install world class infrastructure. Not train stations that belong in once horse towns.
