This is disgusting it’s ableist as fuck and bro. ITS LITERALLY CALLED AN EMERGENCY EXIT YOU NEED IT TO BE FAST
15 seconds is too long in a life-threatening situation. I’m remembering the shooting that occurred on the N train (either last year or 2022?)—if something like that happened in the station itself, 15 seconds is enough time to end a lot of lives. People might not be as lucky as they were on the N. NYC is safer than a lot of non-New Yorkers may think, but that doesn’t mean it can’t ever happen. Again.
That’s not the only example, there’s any number of things that could happen where 15 seconds will make a difference in who lives or dies. This is so dangerous and honestly it feels like a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Not to one-up prev who has made many good points but I would go a little further and say that it’s social murder waiting to happen.
