What happens to the driver after someone has jumped in front of their train?

Some reports same it's not "fine" per se, but lawsuit requesting damages (which most Japanese immediately settle out of court to avoid more public embarrassment)

Really.
The station staff and train personnel subjected to a jumper get monetary compensation coming from the suicide victim's family and next-of-kin. The way I heard it [color="Silver"](urban legend?)[/color], station personell who have to touch the dead get paid 40,000yen each for their trouble. The train's engineer/driver gets changed out when that is practical (or finishes the run if he's in the middle of nowhere) and he gets the rest of day off.

I've heard that often families do not pay. A friend of a guy I was working with jumped and his family was not fined.

I'd then give 5-man or so to the clean up crew and 10-man to the driver which I know doesn't fix the trauma, but it's something.
3 mil? Haha.

Sorry that this place (Japan and Fuckedgaijin) doesn't work for you. It works for some people, some people get it, and have risen above the pettiness, and that must be really irritating to you.
