Or maybe it is a poorly-trained vehicle driver who takes a short cut across a seemingly inactive runway. Or possibly it is a busy air traffic controller who momentarily forgets @ particular aircraft. Any one of these mistakes could result in a runway incursion ~ a serious compromise to aerodrome safety that could easily result In a catastrophic collision and loss of life.
