This can happen to anybody. Should have had him on a hand leash, where she would be forced to let go.

We had a similar incident here in Illinois back in 1995.

she briefly stepped off the train Why did she do that as the train was about to leave?

BART gives clear, loud warnings.

Husband tethers one of our dogs to his waist when we walk and I've never liked it.

Unleash the hounds of hell.

Ruff way to go.

Only seeing eye dogs should be allowed on mass transit.

Glad to hear that the dog was not injured.

As for the woman, she sounds like a Darwin award winner.

BART trains are run by computers.

Sometimes the older ways are better. A conductor on a NYC subway train, usually located mid-train, could have heard the woman and have the train stop.

Glad the dog was ok. Unless of course the dog is a Democrat.

[Jonty30]

If it had been a cat that was tethered. I would have been suspicious of the cat’s intents.

Was she wearing her mask?

[Jonny7797]

What a drag.

[BuffaloJack]

Many years back, my mother had a Saint Bernard. It was February and she asked me to walk him so he could do his business. I made the mistake of attaching the leash to my wrist. The dog decided that he wanted to run. I was dragged on my back for a block an a half. Luckily the sidewalks were all ice covered, so I had no injuries. I never did that again.

"Woman tethered to dog is dragged to death by BART BARK train at San Francisco station"
