This is the second thread relating to missconduct by drivers that you have started in the last couple of days.
The individual in question has been sacked, is never likely to get another job in the industry again, will have lost a pension the like of which he is unlikely to match anywhere else, has a criminal conviction & prison term, is likely to loose his house, and will struggle to get a decent job in the future. Isn't that enough for you? He has been a total idiot, and has had to take the fully justified consequences.
This kind of stupidity is incredibly rare, and there are very robust systems in place to prevent it. All safety critical staff are subjected to random drug and alcohol testing, testing after an incident (usually before "blame" has been established, so even those not responsible get screened initially) and as in this case, if there is any suspicion of unfitness. If you want to highlight the issue of operating machinery whilst drunk, you should speak to the JP friend of mine, who tells me that most of her workload consists of eastern europeans DUI & without insurance.
Sorry, but you seem to have an unhealthy interest in highlighting railway employees that do not perform as they should. Are you perhaps someone that is frustrated because you cannot get such a job yourself?
