Statement: In one of the worst accidents in railway level crossing, fifty people died when a bus carrying them collided on to a running train.
Courses of Action:
- The train driver should immediately be suspended.
- The driver of the bus should be tried in court for negligence on his part.
- The railway authority should be asked to man all its level crossings.
Answer: Option

The problem discussed in the statement is not regarding the current accident, but to do something to avert such mishaps. Accidents at railway crossings can be averted by deploying men to regulate traffic and installing barriers to check traffic movement when a train passes by. So, only III follows.

Driver smashed into a running train, not vice versa. So shouldn't the driver must be called to hear his side?

The correct answer is E, none of these. Manning level crossings may be an effective measure, but clearly this is not a conclusion that can be drawn solely from the information provided in the question.
