The real possibility of someone jumping in front of the train and its likely effect on passengers must be considered when providing a forward view.
Some trains in mainland Europe have a forward view and I believe that the driver can operate a device which instantly blocks this off should the need arise. Having said that I find it hard to imagine that operating it would be the first thing on their mind when faced with that kind of situation.
