I guess the ASLEF spokesman is unlikely to admit "This accident was clearly
caused by our member being incapable of driving the tram within the speed
limit" and will try and pass the buck.
 
The investigation is in its early days yet, and we can talk all we like
about system issues, but unless the operator operates the equipment
correctly, all the protective systems in the world will not help!
