No doubt theres some pointless rule made up by some intellectual
midget that prevents my earlier suggestion from happening.

Shirley there could be some sort of transponder just under the platform
edges that could tie in to receivers on the doors in order to guarantee
that only doors adjacent to the platform would open ? Would this not
appease the HSE ?

Funnily enough, we were talking about this at work the other day.
Someone had suggested making trains longer to reduce overcrowding and
selective door opening to avoid lengthening platforms. When we pointed
out that this was not allowed, and he said - but what about the doors on
the other side of the train - what is to stop them opening accidentally?
