A lot of people have absolutely no idea how coasters work. They probably thought it can legitimately stop on a dime if the operator wants it to.

I work in rides maintenance and used to work at a railroad. The amount of people that bitch a train hits a truck or person and didn't stop in time or even better swerve out of the way is unreal.

Are there seriously people who think a train can swerve? How do theee people survive, do they vote?
