Though Metro and ST have tried some countermeasures, he agrees that all it's gonna take is one unavoidable mishap with a couple of clueless riders walking on the platform, and BANG. They now have this shrill audible warning system whenever anyone steps on the yellow boundary where the curb ends, but I've already seen a couple of crazies ignore it. An accident is inevitable.
