"Safety is one of the seven operating principles of the NEW METRO."

Danger!
It appears the Old METRO safety strategy of having former Chief Lambert run in front of the TV cameras and scream that Houston drivers are stupid wasn't working as METRO had hoped, so the New Officials at the New METRO thought, in the most thoughtful way they could think, and they came up with what surely is a winning safety strategy for the Danger Train:

The NEW METRO will unveil a rail car wrapped in a bumper-to-bumper decal promoting safety along rail lines.

Genius! Give Houston drivers a big distracting mobile billboard to read as they are driving downtown!

As Hair Balls quips, "Try and hold your breath until Tuesday -- if you can."

Barely.
