The cable warned twice and the manufacturer too

SOL29 August 2026 at 08:23

The title indicates that a cable in a system issued two alerts and that the manufacturer also would have warned, but no one at Carris is said to have noticed these warnings. The sub-headline reinforces that the alerts that could have prevented the tragedy were not identified by those responsible at the transport company. The article suggests a failure in communication or monitoring that allowed the warning signs to be ignored.
