But public transit officials say a crash like the one in Washington is unlikely to happen in other cities that rely on a similar automated system, including Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; San Francisco, California; Boston, Massachusetts; Miami, Florida; and Atlanta, Georgia. Yeah, anyone taking bets against it? __________________ They say technology slows down for no one. I know it outruns my wallet. I figure its because my wallet isn't light enough yet.
