Bratislava, 18 November (TASR) - The railway accident that took place near the village of Jablonov nad Turnou in Roznava district (Kosice region) in mid-October was caused by the driver of one of the trains, who ignored a red light and thus failed to respect the signals at the entrance to a tunnel.
This is the conclusion of the Transport Ministry's investigation body that was announced by Transport Minister Jozef Raz (a Smer-SD nominee) at a news conference on Tuesday. The body also proposed several measures that should help to improve the safety of rail transport in the future.
