Originally published on August 1, 2013<br /><br />Security cameras were installed in commuter train cabins in Argentina after conductors were found responsible for two deadly accidents in a year. Since then, they have recorded some drivers sleeping, reading and using their cellphone while on duty.<br /><br />The videos were released after authorities launched an investigation into Buenos Aires' tragedy-prone rail system. <br /><br />According to reports, the security cameras were installed in June with the aim to control conductors' behavior and limit train accidents.<br /><br />Despite the use of cellphones being prohibited inside the cabins, CCTV footage showed a conductor using his phone while driving.<br /><br />Another conductor was taped reading a book while traveling at high speed.<br /><br />Cameras also caught a driver sleeping while the train was going through several crossroads. Yet another conductor attempted to cover the security camera with a shirt or a towel.<br /><br />According to officials, conductors caught misbehaving on tape have been fired or disciplined for safety breaches.<br /><br />Argentina's train unions demonstrated against the cameras with a daylong strike last month. They blamed bad brakes and other maintenance failures for both of the Buenos Aires train wrecks.<br /><br />According to Reuters, Argentina's Interior and Transport Minister Florencio Randazzo said passengers have the right to have well-trained conductors driving responsibly.<br /><br />"Randazzo told the media, drivers must now pass physicals to ensure they do not fall asleep at the wheel as well as sit a set of new exams that include an additional 100 hours of training," Reuters reported. <br /><br />TomoNews is your daily source for top animated news.
