(Translated by Google) I'm really shocked.
On May 31, 2021, I went to Nippon Medical School Chiba Hokuso Hospital for medical treatment via Iiyama Mitsuru Station on the Toyo Kosoku Line, changed trains at Kita-Narashino Station on the Shin-Keisei Line, and was approaching the platform of the station along the way. , I was sitting in the middle seat of the third car, on the right side in the direction of travel, when the train suddenly braked and instantly caused an accident that resulted in personal injury. Two fire engines and an ambulance arrived in about 10 minutes, and I watched from inside the car as if praying for safety as firefighters and crew members carried out rescue operations under the third car. There was an announcement in the train about a personal accident, but the crew members' voices were shaking so I couldn't hear them very well. The rescue operation was completed in about 20 to 30 minutes, and we returned to the station to inspect the vehicle. After a while, we went straight to Shin-Kamagaya Station to exchange vehicles and were able to transfer to Hokuso Railway, but we were unable to get to the hospital. I was unable to go to the hospital, so I had to do an online examination using my smartphone. The prescription was sent by fax from the hospital to the pharmacy, and I was able to receive the medication on the same day. I don't know what happened to the person involved in the accident, but I can only pray that they are safe. This is the second time I have been involved in an accident this year. I'm not sure if this is due to the effects of the current coronavirus pandemic, but I can feel it all closer to me every day. In order to eliminate accidents resulting in injury or death, wouldn't it be possible to prevent accidents if trains were to drive slowly at speeds of less than 10km/h when a train enters the platform, instead of prioritizing efficiency? Isn't it also essential to install barrier-free home guards to prevent falls?

凄くショックです。
2021年5月31日に日本医科大学千葉北総病院へ診療のため、東葉高速線の飯山満駅経由で、新京成線の北習志野駅で乗り変えて途中の駅のホームへ差し掛かった時に、私は3両目の中間の進行方向右側の席に座っていたところ電車の急ブレーキが掛かり一瞬で人身事故に遭遇致しました。10分程で消防車2台と救急車両1台が到着し、消防隊員と乗務員が3両目車両の下で救助活動を行っているのを車内から無事を祈る様に拝見していました。車両内アナウンスで人身事故にについてのアナウンスがありましたが、乗務員の声も震えていた声であまり良く聞こえませんでした。20〜30分位で救助活動が終わり、車両の検証のため駅に戻り、暫くして車両交換の為、新鎌ヶ谷駅まで直行し、北総鉄道に乗り継ぐことができましたが、病院へは行けずスマートフォンでのオンライン診察を行って頂きました。処方箋は、病院からファックスで薬局へ送ってもらい薬も無事に、その日に受け取る事ができました。事故になった方のその後の状況は分かりませんが無事にであることをただただ祈ることしかできません。今年に入ってこれで2度目の人身事故に遭遇しています。それだけに、今の新型コロナコロナウイルス禍の影響なのかわ定かではないですが、そのことが身近に感じられる日々です。人身事故を無くすためには、電車がホームに侵入する際には、効率を優先するのではなくして車両を10㌔以下での徐行運転を実行する事が可能ならば、事故は防げるのではないでしょうか?尚且バリアフリー化で転落防止のホームガードの設置も不可欠ではないでしょうか?
