Even without a belt why was the interior of the cab car not made with impact resistant materials like a car dash. I know normally the engineer is seated and should not be tossed about, however, the passengers and other staff members may be standing and subject to injury by hitting the interior fixtures.
BTW condolences to the engineer's family.
To me if he survived the initial impact someone needs to assess the design of the cars to insure that any sharp angles are removed, and that impact absorbing materials are used.
