It's going to hit the buffers soon.

What a nutter. The kid will need some counselling after that.

This must happen a lot then in Argentina. If the ticket inspectors are on the platform, wont it be a better option to have them on the train ?

Had to re read that - thought you said tracks instead of platform lol.

Now now, let's not let this thread get off track... I think all the puns are running out of steam now

Cor blimey, when watching the video I was Choo Choo-ing my teeth.

lol @ all puns.

Still can't understand how ticket collection works in Argentina. :confused:

Her mother is just loco.

The mother must have such a coal disposition to leave her daughter like that.

They must use a different system than we do for ticket inspection. Still, what a terrible mum to do that. Wonder how widespread it is though? Maybe it is a common thing in that part of the world?

she doesn't even look that bothered that her child has just been potentially squished by a train - everyone on the piece of footage just stood there and looked, weird.

Only in South America.

I think they need a better parental safety training program.

Murray · 9 Jan 2011 at 14:05

Parents need a training course from now on.

As with most stations the inner edge of the platform has a curve to it which is built like that for the very reason if someone doesn't have time to leg it they can squash into the curve, unless they are obese!!

Crazy yes and a bit close on the timing, but the reporter says it is a standard tactic to avoid paying the ticket?

What!!! A standard tactic, so what is considered crazy??? Wow, just wow!!!

Another reason why some people just shouldn't have kids...

Sorry to blow off steam...
