I can understand the freakout.

I'm still fully for shared transportation models, especially trains.

I've used them across the planet. Why they didn't open doors, I'm not 
sure. Seems harrowing.

This happened to me once in Paris on the RER train. They didn't open the 
doors. We were aghast. Then the doors opened two stops later. Why? Turns 
out, much teargas around the station due to a local insurrection.... and 
the fumes were traveling down the tunnel.

Ok, good enough.
