Federal Transit Administration could probe SEPTA safety standards following rash of crashes

There are rumblings that the National Transit Administration (FTA) could join the National Transportation Safety Board's (NTSB) investigation into a rash of SEPTA crashes, including one that killed a 72-year-old passenger. The FTA could probe SEPTA's safety standards, which may result in a new safety plan which the transit system will have to adhere to or risk sharp penalties.
