How safe is the maglev system?

The Transrapid Maglev system is not only one of the fastest modes of ground transportation but it also the very safest. Because of the unique vehicle design that wraps around the guideway, derailment is not possible. Although the Maglev operates at high speeds, there is no need for passenger safety belts.

Much of the guideway can also be elevated above existing right-of-way making collision with other modes of transportation impossible. In addition, the control system of the Maglev excludes the possibility of two maglev vehicles colliding. This is because the traveling electromagnetic field in the guideway that propels the vehicles always moves the vehicles in the same direction and at the same speed.

A faster vehicle cannot run into the back of a slower vehicle nor is it possible for two vehicles to meet head on. This is because the power is only turned on in the section of guideway the vehicle occupies. Independent experts have also examined the safety of the Transrapid Maglev ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
