Note for Codes H221, H222, and H605: For accidents involving noncompliance by crew members |
with the indication of block or interlocking signals, the appropriate human factor cause relating to |
failure to comply with the signal should always be used as the primary cause. Code H605, “Failure |
to comply with restricted speed in connection with the restrictive indication of a block or interlocking |
signal,” should be shown as the contributing cause in those accidents arising from noncompliance |
with block or interlocking signal conveying a restrictive indication. Code H607 may be used as the |
primary cause code when the accident did not involve block or interlocking signals, but arose due to |
noncompliance by crew members with timetable special instructions, equipment restrictions, and/or |
operating rules or procedures. |
