‘Train courtesy has gotten so much worse’—SG commuter calls out ‘door blockers,’ backpack wearers and passengers who won’t move in
One commuter says she’s getting increasingly annoyed by the same things on her morning MRT ride — people blocking the doors, refusing to move in and wearing huge backpacks. This article ( ‘Train courtesy has gotten so much worse’—SG commuter calls out ‘door blockers,’ backpack wearers and passengers who won’t move in ) first appeared on The Independent Singapore News .
Singaporean commuters are venting their frustration on Reddit over what they see as a decline in basic public transport etiquette during peak hours. The poster cites three particularly irritating behaviors, including "door blockers" who rush onto the train as the doors open, passengers who remain at the doors rather than moving into the carriage, and those who fail to remove their large backpacks while riding the train.
Many other commuters echoed her concerns, with some arguing that these problems are longstanding and others suggesting that education and mindfulness are required to improve train behavior.
