Can you continue driving with passengers, after noticing a breakdown in the door closing mechanism, in the first wagon?
Show the correct answer
Correct answer
A. No.
Explanation
In the photo, passengers are getting on the tram through open doors. After you find a fault in the closing mechanism of the second door in the first carriage, you must not continue driving with passengers - answer A.
Doors that do not close properly create a risk that a passenger will fall out, especially on a curve or when braking. Switching off the drive lock (answer B) removes the safety device that prevents driving with open doors, so it is not acceptable. Driving with open doors to the turning loop (answer C) is just as dangerous. You ask the passengers to change to another tram and follow the dispatcher's instructions. You report the fault to the technical staff. You explain to the passengers why the tram has stopped.
