Meanwhile in Italy this morning i was 90 minutes late to work because someone managed to steal some of the copper wires constituting the overhead lines powering the trains... Asking the conductor for explanations he calmly but slightly annoyedly answered "it is what it is..." as to say "What do you expect me to do? To get out and push?"

That was so interesting. Crazy how different the rail culture is in Switzerland, where the national rail operator always insists that if there's a delay due to infrastructure issues or bad timetabling, the driver must not worry about it and just needs to keep going without compromising safety, even of the delay persists.

Sadly in Japan things cumulate extremely fast. If a train is late by 1 minute, that means 100 persons will be late and in worst case scenario each of those 100 persons provide services to 100 persons each. That means 10 000 persons will be already late and delays tend to cumulate too so it's just going to be a big mess. So in a way I understand that because there just are so many people in Japan but the schedules shouldn't be so extremely strict that being late will escalate to situations like these. There should be some pure waiting time in the schedules so hiccups in schedules could be smoothed out with them. Humans aren't machines humans are living beings and their performance fluctuates.

The problem is that people make high demands for punctuality, and they are not wrong. Ask anyone if they would want trains and buses to arrive at the right time every time; consistency makes lives better for everyone. One train coming late is an excuse for others to do the same. I am NOT saying I am in favor of this at all, but I am realistic enough to know that the company will ask the public if they want trains to lose accuracy for safety, and vote of majority will be against it; it was a one-off accident, it isn't worth changing if the chance of casualty is so low (also why people keep taking airplanes as mode of travel; a single accident can kill 400 people, but they are very rare). In fact, more people die in car accidents over a month than people die to train accidents in a year or more. People WILL take the train, even if the work conditions to keep one running are so abhorrent.

How is two people saying "we are 69 seconds late" different from only one doing so? As I said in another post, we figured out that people on the phone won't pay attention to the road, so we punish hard those that use the phone while driving a car Car drivers are at most responsible for what? 25 people if they mess up?

@tsm688 They're extremely unproductive. They waste a lot of time on tedious things. White collar workers have a tradition of staying at work for long hours but produce little to no valuable work. A lot of their work actually can be done in a few hours. But for some reason, their culture will add unnecessary components and overwork their workers. It's why a lot of workers when they travel to the US or other western countries are surprise by how productive and less time wasting they are on work. Though the West still have issues of their own, and I do admire quite a bit of things that Japan does well, like their sanitation practices. It's a shame that not even through death of its people, the culture is not completely changing itself over.

Singapore trains are usually on time because the majority of their rail network is automated. I think it’s worth bringing up the fact that there are differences in system and operating condition. Trains in Singapore usually come 4-7 minutes apart and stop for less than a minute, in addition to having shorter average route length. Singapore trains being more than 1 whole minute late is extremely abnormal and usually finds itself receiving media attention (it’s usually the result of a breakdown or fault) “Trains come late every time” is a gross exaggeration and far from statistical reports.

It is physically impossible to be on time all the time, As a bus driver in the UK our limits are " no more than two minutes early or five minutes late" but this is a general guideline, as most services are late we expected the driver to do their best.

@@funkyfox7996 No, not sarcasm. I means that many companies rule their employees with fear of repercussions, the driver's fear of shame over losing one minute would bring him repercussions, none the least of which would be shame. Most people do their best to accommodate and often go beyond their limits to try to do the right thing. Yes, the driver was at fault to a great degree but the company put the fear of failure into him, in essence, the company was in control of the driver.

I am Japanese and use the train lines operated by this railroad company every day. It may seem unbelievable to people outside of Japan, but Japanese trains actually operate based on a very precise operation plan, and are usually more accurate than people outside of Japan might think. They are so integrated into daily life that even a delay of only a few minutes can affect the daily lives of many people. This accident has actually led to a review of railroad operation plans throughout Japan, but only to a reduction in the need for extreme speediness, etc. I believe that the required arrival time system has changed little. I myself find even delays of only 5 or 15 minutes bothersome. Many Japanese see this accuracy as a good thing and feel that it is a part of Japan that they should be proud of. However, in the comments on this video, there were many who demanded safety rather than accuracy, and I strongly felt the difference in perception between the Japanese and the rest of the world. In reality, the accident rate on Japanese railroads is not that high, but still, I felt that we need to rethink our common sense, adopt good points from other countries, and become more tolerant of delays and other problems. Thanks for the very high quality and informative video. Thanks for reading this far. From a Japanese high school student DeepL translation was used

It's not that we're all concerned for the safety of Japanese passengers, the trains are more than likely very safe. I think this accident is an example of the concept of 気遣い taken too far. Work and routine are important. Human beings are more important than that, and so is their well-being.

Bro, in the us our trains are always late but we have like 3 derailments per month but those are freights with goods (usually toxic chemicals). Honestly I’m sure you guys are fine but maybe they should schedule longer waits at pick ups to make up time if there’s a delay. It shouldn’t make commutes much longer unless you are going really far which means you already had a long commute so you just add that to your plans

Not sure how universal it is, but in medical school we are told "Perfection is the enemy of good." Meaning too many young doctors will try to seek perfection, which just ends up going nowhere. You spend all your time on one case and that case never gets finished. Then all of the others behind it get delayed. When in reality, it was probably good enough to just move on much earlier. I like that saying. But it is hard to explain to people. You never want to tell a patient we aren't aiming for a perfect surgery etc. But you can have a standard procedure without error without it being perfect.

From the reports and data that's publicly available so far that's the plane on the taxi were told to hold short, that mean he need to wait on the end of the taxiway until they were told to go. But maybe there's a miss communication that lead to the plane go into the runway without permission. On this state collision warning can only be seen by the tower since on airplane the collision warning is automatically turned off at a certain altitude. But from multiple recreation of the accident based on reports and eyewitness and the plane on the ground didn't turning on their strobe lights which at this state you're mandated to, it's hard to avoid such accident. But kudos to JAL's crew for safely evacuating everyone onboard, such a stellar job from them.

As a German, it's surreal to me how they can get so wound up over a delay of 1 minute and 20 seconds. I would be happy if all the trains that I take had this delay, but usually, they're delayed 5 minutes or more. I have ran through train stations trying to catch my connecting train more times than I can count, only to discover my desired train has already left and I have to take the next one that leaves in 30 minutes. So what? When I'm going somewhere where punctuality is important, I'll take an earlier train, easy as that, life goes on. But for an entire culture to be so uptight about a minute of delay on a train that runs every 10-15 minutes? I honestly don't get it. Here in Germany, I see a lot of people wishing for trains that are as pinctual as Japan's, and I absolutely get that wish, but if that takes employees being abused and there ultimately being such deadly crashes, I'd rather not have it.

And punishments shouldn't be the goto solution anyway, unless someone really is a REPEAT offender, but at least SOME kind of acknowledgement of delays and ATTEMPTS to prevent them in the future.

Never was it a cause for delay except one time where I needed to digitally sign on to a training seminar and my name came up in the roll. I walked in and they just had to select my name again. But I got fired from that place even though I was in the top 10% as far as productivity, expertise, safety etc. I never called off. And after I was fired they reset the points for everyone in the whole plant. Bullshit

Someone's *one* mistake was nearly ramming into my car, *the only one on the highway at the time,* with the speed of... I don't know, 85 MPH in a 55 zone at the end of the on-ramp? I only avoided it because I looked in the passenger mirror and slammed the brakes in time while going about 50 MPH. Even then with me slowing to 30 or 25 MPH, I barely missed them. Would I have died? Maybe not, but it would not have been good. They were going to side-swipe me. And (I am not exaggerating here,) when I looked at the clock right after, *it was 4:20 PM.* Maybe I heard them coming because I had the windows open a little bit? But I had a habit of looking in mirrors a lot, which I think is more of the reason why I noticed. I still have that habit. Now I want to look at on0ramps for some fool. Nobody was behind me for a long distance, nobody else would have witnessed the accident. But my Dad was in another car maybe half a mile behind, yet he probably wouldn't have seen it happen since I think he was behind a curve.

I don’t know how to explain it right, but humans are always just defective beings, no? Humans aren’t machines, they make mistakes all the time and they make things or don’t make the things the way people expect to, that people doesn’t like. If they don’t understand, you should cut them off or put a clear line between you and them, because it’s not okay for making another one feeling this shit. Just be yourself. Do things in your own tempo, in your own comfort. Not in the way ‘stranger’ people wish to. In most times, humans are just unhappy with themselves or with the things that happened and they take it out on another in most different ways. Their character isn’t developed enough. But it’s good to challenge yourself sometimes, expand your comfortzone, cross boundaries/lines and expand your limits. Step by step, even the little ones, and many things will get easier by the time. Sometimes it gets more difficult and complicated and frustrated again but that’s the point where you shouldn’t stop. And if you want to take a little break, that’s okay. That’s how humans just are.

But Japan still has the best rail safety record in the world. Running at line speed is the normal operation so there is no room for catching up. Some stops do have slack time built into the timetable but in general the train schedule in Japan tend to be very tight because their perception of time is very different from the rest of the world. The on time operation relies heavily on the skill of drivers. They are all extremely skilled train drivers in Japan. They are trained to have an internal speedometer in their brain. They can predict how much brake needed to stop the train within 30cm of the stopping line without releasing the brake during the whole stopping process and at the same time maintaining passenger comfort. During training, speedometer in the cabin is covered and drivers are required to tell the speed of the train. A full bucket of water is also placed in the cabin and the driver will fail the test if the water spills. Their capabilities make western train drivers look untrained.

Aviation seems to have this a bit better, with, as far as I know, pilots not being punished for honest mistakes and for deciding to abort the landing, go around and try again. Otherwise, yeah, if you needed to prove that you really needed to do a circle around the airport, many more pilots would just try their luck and fail. If the train schedule is such that there is no tolerance even for a few seconds of delay, then sooner or later you will have problems. By this I mean the calculated speed of the train for the schedule was probably 1km/h below the speed limit, so there is no legal way to just go faster and arrive at the next station on time, the driver in this video still tried to do that and killed 107 people in the process.

@@Pentium100MHz for refuse landing and fly to alternate, for delays, for excessive fuel reserves, for many things. Companies do not like Excessive Losses! And, yes, all this sometimes ends with crash. Train schedules on busy lines does not allow delays even for 30 sec, or the whole system risk to collapse. In Munich central tunnel trains run by "takt" 2 min, if you delayed 1 min on entry (after 30 min trip, from somewhere like airport) you lost, because next train, from different route, is coming already and there are no free slots ahead, its impossible to stretch the schedule. So for 50 years they upkeep this takt. Japan train systems are even more overloaded. So if this guy got 2 min behind and next station is in 10 min (10 km) he had to press out everything from the train to be there ontime, drive 116 instead of 70 with critical speed 106. He just forgot, did not think, about curve, it was thrown out of his mind by thoughts about imminent delay and what it will cause.

@@antontsau And that's how you get accidents. The train could be delayed by a minute for multiple reasons and now the driver has to violate the speed limit to catch up. He probably remembered about the curve too late and also probably thought that the 70km/h speed limit had a safety factor built in (it's not going to be 70km/h = safe, 71km/h = derailment) and he was right, but he overestimated it, if he had slowed down to 105km/h everyone probably would have been safe. The problem is not so much as not allowing delays according to the schedule, the problem is creating the schedule on the limit of what is physically possible (or at least legal and safe), resulting in people violating safety rules in case of a small delay. Just because the speed limit on the highway is 130km/h it does not mean that it will take an hour to go to my destination 130km away.

Thanks for making this video. I just spent 4 weeks in Japan, taking many different forms of transportation, from old to new. I have a better understanding now of the cultural mindset that expects no less than perfection, yet lives with complacency and inertia in the same space. The status quo drives people to accept difficult working conditions and force themselves to behave in ways no "normal" person should. One may observe sales staff who cannot relax one second in case a customer enters their store, or endless safety announcements on escalators, or mindless jingles and promotional messages playing over and over in stores, or the ritualization of after-work drinking "to gain favour", or no talking on phones allowed on trains. While I rode on one of Japan's newest high speed rail lines, I also used commuter trains that had probably clocked millions of kilometres since their introduction. Here and there, such as on the subway system, accessibility for wheelchairs doesn't exist. First, you must climb a few steps up from the sidewalk to enter the station. Then, you have to take steps down to the ticket concourse. Then it's another flight of stairs, and another, then a corridor to yet another flight of stairs. Good luck figuring out which direction you're going in case you board a train from the wrong platform. Peel back a layer, and you'll find that the shiny architectural newness and spotless unforms are covering up some large oversights in humane treatment and social progress. I also witnessed or received acts of kindness, so I am not saying that people have just given up. Only that the system/way of life can grind people down.

This hits close to home actually. Even though I have no relations to Japan, this incident, and especially the response by the authorities and the company reminds of the huge differences between countries. In Japan at least they made the assessment to say where the blame was and people resigned. Here in Greece on 28 February 2023 two trains crashed into each other, because they were on THE SAME TRACK. The trains in Greece in some areas run blind with no automatic safety systems whatsoever. If there is human error, which there was at that time, there are 0 safeguards to prevent a fiery fireball crash like the one that happened, which cost 57 mostly young people (uni students) their lives. No one from the government or the company that manages the trains - and was obligated to install safety systems - is stepping up. It was all covered up immediately (literally, within days of the incident the local government covered up what was, at that point, the site of an active possibly criminal investigation, with concrete, and moved the derailed cars away, together with the condemning soil and clues. The minister of transport at the time cried fake tears on TV, resigned and then got reelected nicely in the election that was a couple of months later. One year later the authorities are not even looking at this from a criminal point of view and they always try to assign blame to the conductor who made the human error. The Balkans are such a joke, man.

German tramdriver here. This is fascinatingly horryfing. I pretty much always have a delay of 1-2 Minutes on some lines, but there never ever is a punishment. Not even after 10+ Minute delays. It's safety first, always. And we have no Train Control System at all (for most trams, not trains) I love our work culture here in Germany and am glad to not be under so high pressure like our Japanese colleagues. I feel for them and wish for things to get better. Thank you for this very interesting video!

Yeah but in Japan they also have a low rate of train crashes, and yet, it's unthinkable to have a 10 minute delay. A 10 minute delay is unacceptable. Japanese railway still has the best safety record in the world. The so called safety (or sloppy?) operation in the west doesn’t actually bring along safety. Train crashes happen from time to time in the west but they make a big deal of a one off train crash incident in Japan.

In India, trains are expected to be late, so no one questions.. The delay. Is because of the number of passengers the trains carry, they are always overloaded. And the driver has to always make sure that nobody falls from the doors in the overcrowded train.. so they are mostly late.. Here people safety is first and time delay is something that people have started accepting it ..

@@ujjalghosh510 there is a name for this ' MIRACLE ' 😂😂😂. Nowadays, most of the trains run timely because of abnormal time table with respect to the distance between two station. For example- let's say the distance between X and Y station is 30 km then it would take only 15 minutes given the speed 70 km/h of the train but according to the time table of train, it would take 2 hrs. This is intentionally made by Indian railways in order to show the punctuality of trains to the higher management.

In East Asia, slight delays of even a few milliseconds are punishable by ostracization and/or death, of both the delayer and the delayed, as well as those who point out the flaws in such exactness. In most of Europe and the whole of the Americas, a "slight" delay of an hour or so is considered a miracle, and is only punishable by the delayeds' endless complaining and getting people fired over it. What they both have common is *not* respecting that operators of vital infrastructure should be well-rested, but they express it in their own ways.

This is the same mentality as RyanAir !!! There have been pilots that have come out to speak. They are going down the runway to take off and the airplane is already sounding a Low Fuel Warning to reach their destination. The pilots are pressured so hard to save the most fuel, or there are severe consequences. One time, 3 RyanAir planes were forced to circle an airport because of traffic. If I remember correctly they either circled 1 time or perhaps not even one time because they all had to declare a mayday and land at another airport because of low fuel levels. Crazy! Funny how nobody stops this behavior. They really did have enough fuel to make it safe but the alarm is set for a safety margin. However, the alarm should never go off in the first place.

I've been living and working in Japan for about a year now. The good things are when you on the receiving end of a service. Trains and buses are NEVER even one minute early or late, and when Yamato or Sagawa says they will deliver your package between say 19PM - 20PM, they absolutely will. I feel the price of such punctuality daily though. I work at a confectionery and gift foods factory. Every day we have the exact time we should be finishing the day's production. If it's 19:15, we should finish around this time. Not too late, not too soon. I'm just a line worker so I don't hear much from the bosses, but basically every day I see the boss reprimanding the managers responsible for the line and machines. I can barely blame them though. One of the machines stops constantly every day, but the higher ups don't care, the manager has to deal with it and do as much zangyou (overtime) as needed until he can figure it out and finish the day's production. That also applies to us. We have to stay until we finish everything for the day. I've done 5 hours of zangyou a few times, with 2 hours every day being the average.

@@alexus267 We need to stay until we finish the production set for that day. The entire month's production is already decided on the month before. The machines are crap and stop working every day so we simple line workers have to wait until the manager can fix them every day. This causes delays and we are forced to do overtime because the line requires us to be there. They never lower the production due to delays, they prefer to force us to do overtime instead of having to deal with having to move the remaining production to another day.

Let me tell you, is pretty rare to see a train delay because you know.. theres no reason, no traffic or red lights. But buses is a total different story, sometimes they arrive 10 minutes late and cant blame them since elderly people take their time to pay, go up or down the bus plus the traffic. Its pretty rare for me to take a bus but for sure its not rare to see a delay. About the delivery companies: in my case is 50/50 that they will deliver the package according to the instructions.
