Reply to comment by 10Bens in TIL of the 1955 Le Mans disaster. French driver Pierre Levegh crashed into a crowd of spectators. The crash, explosion and subsequent fire killed 84 and injured more than 120. It is still the deadliest car race crash ever. by triviafrenzy

And taken out on the whims of profit. See East Palestine, OH and Trump deregulation of hazardous train brake requirements.

The Trump administration is the one who removed the regulation after the Obama added it.

Trump probably didn't really give two shits about most of what he signed as President but he's just as responsible as the other Republicans who voted the change through.

Republican governor DeWine is also the one who refused federal aid from Biden going to the affected area.

Ik he overturned the regulations but the company itself also has to take blame and so does Biden since he could've reimpleneted the regulation if it was that important
