Why was mr. huskisson unable to avoid the oncoming train?

Mr. Huskinsson was unable to dodge the upcoming locomotive engine becuase it was coming with very high speed and he was completely unaware from it.

Explanation:

Mr. William Huskinsson was one the Members of Parliament of Liverpool. On 15th September, 1850 he crossed Northumbria with his own carriage, on the same day the Prime Minister of Liverpool, Duke Wellington gave green signal to several locomotive engines for the first time including the engine named Rocket driven by Joseph Locke, the Rocket crossed the Northumbria at the same time and badly damaged one leg of Mr. Huskinsson.
