Note, at the public meeting metro admitted there is no body of evidence that suggests the alarms work. And because we don't know, there is also the risk that the alarms could potentially prove fatal as both drivers and the public try to tune it out.
A much better system would be one that alerts the driver to the danger. After all, it is the driver who is ultimately responsible and shifting the responsibility to those in the right of way, as my friend and colleauge who was killed, is not the solution. I can appreciate the effort put forth by Metro, but I am happy this experiment in audible alarms has ended before investing any more precious resources towards it. Hopefully the public will be better engaged if new solutions are brought forth for testing.
