So far , they have reassert that the technologist , who was among those killed , failed to intercept at the final red sign . However , two teens have come onward saying that they received text subject matter from him shortly before the incident . Yeah , that vocalize creepy — but the teens claim that they befriended the railroad engineer after expressing pastime in his study , often contacting him with questions about his job . Obviously , making judgment about whether or not text electronic messaging was behind the crash is a bit previous at this period — but earpiece records from both the teens and the technologist will go a foresightful elbow room in check a causal agency . But one matter is sure — had the right safety technology been in place , the caravan would have mechanically stopped when it did not respond to the signal . [ SFGateImage viaLA Times ]
