Surely when investigating a crime, the police should be given all the
time that they need.
So why then when a road accident occurs they clear things up much quicker?
Because in a road accident the perpetrator is normally one of the
drivers involved and generally still present at the scene, with tyre
marks on the road/dents in the car/other witnesses present, all of
which make working out what happened quite easy.
Suspect that in a one-under or similar rail accident it's quite a bit
harder to work out what happened and no easy-collectible evidence (no
dented cars or tyre marks to photograph).
I'd have thought you could show a little more compassion for the
victim, it's not like this happens every day. Reserve your vitriol for
real incompetences like cracked rails.
