Slovak Railways Loses Patience with Train Driver Safety Violations After Ten Red Light Incidents

Slovak state railway company ŽSR has expressed growing frustration with safety violations by train drivers, after recording ten incidents this year where drivers passed through red signals. The state-owned railway infrastructure operator made unusually direct comments about errors committed by drivers from ZSSK, Slovakia's other state railway company responsible for train operations. Previous safety measures introduced by the transport ministry appear to have failed to address the recurring problem of signal violations, which pose significant risks to railway safety.
