Dedication keeps Beijing's safest metro operator moving

Liao Ming, a subway operator with the Beijing Subway Company, set a record for driving 900,000 km with no accidents in his 30 years on the job, becoming the safest driver on the urban transport circuit in the country.

Liao started operating subway cars in August 1985 after graduating from a technical school.
