Honestly, tragedies like this just highlight how desperately we need to let experts run things instead of politicians cutting corners or ignoring infrastructure warnings. With proper engineering oversight and real-time monitoring tech, unstable tracks or vulnerable sewage systems could be flagged and fixed before disaster strikes. Too often, maintenance and prevention get sidelined because decision-makers don’t actually understand the systems they're responsible for. If we actually empowered scientists and engineers to make these calls, we'd save so many lives.
