Alright, you might say you can slam the brakes on, but this would possibly cause problems with your passengers.... and maybe cause serious problems with the train? I dunno, but would slamming your brakes on cause a possible de-rail situation?

That said, if you think about it for too long and get into the whole "I killed someone" thing.. then I'm sure it must put you in a pretty dark place. Is there no help/time off given to drivers who go through this?
