What you posted ¨...recently there was a Washington DC subway accident that killed 9. In both cases a possible cause stated was "operator distracted while text messaging.." is incorrect. Metro (who is part of the official investigation team) never release such a statement. Yes it was stated by whomever but it was not true. For anyone to quote/print statements that has no facts to support it I feel is acting reckless.

That driver died trying to stop that train. That is a fact. YoDude there is no more I have to say on this.

Sorry people for hijacking this tread.
heavyt is correct.

I did not read the individual Google results until this was pointed out. The searches were made to support my memory that there were multiple incidents with one occurring recently. The DC incident that I referred to was not text related.

The more recent of the two text related train incidents that I was searching for actually occurred in Boston. My apologies to heavyt and anyone who may have been offended by that post.
