On November 16, 2023, a tragic collision on the CTA Yellow Line left several passengers injured and raised significant concerns about the safety of the city’s transit system. The incident, which involved a derailment and collision with snowplow equipment, prompted an immediate response from emergency services and transportation officials. As the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigates the causes behind the crash, questions about the CTA’s failures to implement appropriate braking systems, poor communication of hazards on tracks to train operators, unsafe speed limits and intoxication of train operators have emerged as central issues. Moreover, the CTA’s failure to be candid has resulted in breaking the public’s trust. This incident marks a troubling moment for Chicago’s public transportation system, highlighting vulnerabilities that demand urgent attention.
