I asked WMATA's Chief Safety Officer Theresa Impastato a bit about safety culture last week. I asked her to compare Metro to Amtrak's culture, where she previously worked.
I also asked if safety issues are isolated to a few ppl or if it's a wider problem.

In this month’s issue we attempt to dissect and diagnose the burning question, “how do we finally create a culture of safety at @WMATA that is also more accountable and transparent?"
