    Very tragic to hear, though I never seen these people movers...but this incident is no good.
    Like what Phil said, I hope people pay more attention when driving so incidents like these are avoided.

    I flew out of Dulles yesterday (Friday) and was amazed at how busy the traffic was with the People Movers. They move passengers and employees between the terminals, along with the underground subway system.

    I didn't know about the incident but can see how dangerous these things are.
