WATCH: LRT1 train running with doors open
A video of an Light Rail Transit Line 1 (LRT 1) train running with its doors open went viral on social media Tuesday.
Netizen Jason Ibe shared on Monday night a video of the defective train, which he described to be like a ride in an amusement park Star City.
“Parang nasa star city lang ako hahahahha. Bucket list achieved: makasakay sa LRT na bukas ang pinto,” Ibe wrote.
In the video, some passengers can be heard laughing in the background, while some cautioning fellow passengers who might fell out of the train.
No one was reported hurt in the incident.

A few weeks ago, a woman lost her arm in a freak accident in the Metro Rail Transit 3 (MRT-3). Days later, a train uncoupled while on its way to Ayala station.

As of posting time, the Light Rail Transit Authority has yet to issue a statement explaining what happened. /jpv
