Safety is Re-education
Safety is Re-education.
Safety education is re-education to those who are already trained and on the job, and re-education is a most difficult undertaking. Not only is it hard to shed old habits; it is hard even to want to shed them.
But that is the road of progress. We lay down the good to advance to the better. Mechanical ability has been on a high level for the past decade or two. But the increased complexity of life demands that it become still higher.—J. U. Yarborough Ph.D., in the Santa Fe Railways Magazine.)
