Since Brightline launched in 2018, its trains have hit 174 vehicles, killing 25 people and injuring 63 more, an investigation by WLRN and the Miami Herald found. Another 104 people survived without injuries, some by fleeing their cars before impact. “Wounds on your body disappear slowly over time,” one survivor said. “But wounds on the inside? Those you keep.”
