地铁行驶中没关门 SMRT致歉 站长遭停职
地铁列车未关好车门就开车，乘客纷纷抓住扶手，避免跌下车。如此惊悚的一幕被网友录下后放上社交媒体，立刻引起其他网民纷纷表示恐怖，新加坡地铁有限公司（SMRT Trains Limited）接获报告立刻道歉，地铁站站长被停职。
根据视频提供的网民指出，有关的地铁列车是一辆南北地铁线向北行驶的列车。有关列车是从宏茂桥地铁站开往杨厝港地铁站时，车门有一扇车门并没有关上。
SMRT在今天（12日）早上发出文告，证实有关事件的发生。文告中指出，有关的事件是在11日傍晚约7时30分发生。
有关的列车车门当时发生故障，地铁站长仍然在车内车内处理故障的车门时，列车开跑了。
SMRT企业通讯副总裁张耀美（Margaret Teo）指出，当时列车内立刻广播要求所有乘客远离故障的车门，以及抓住扶手。
她指出，列车在行驶了约200米后停车了，再返回到宏茂桥地铁站，让所有的乘客安全下车，而车门故障的列车也立即暂提服务。
张瑶美补充说，SMRT立刻将有关车站的站长停职处理，安全是该公司的首要考量，并对此事表示歉意。
初步调查显示，站长错误操作，导致列车在有一扇门还未关上的情况下，离开地铁站。
非首次发生意外
此次并非SMRT首宗意外，2016年1月22日下午6时46分，一位市民在列车行驶时，忽然打开了轻轨的大门。
同年，从武吉班让（Bukit Panjang）到信加（Senja）轻轨站的过程中，轻轨的车门呈现开门状长达五个小时。
地铁公司当时表示，有关的失误或许是设计缺陷所致，并且发生信号故障，以致地铁员工必须重新掌控无人驾驶的武吉班让轻轨系统，转入手动驾驶模式。
