Make It Right For A Better Ride.


Hi everyone. I actually chose my favourite poster(above) which can be found on on.fb.me/betterride (: Firstly, why this is my favourite one, because I think that this poster described quite detailed. I was totally agreed with what she had written long ago. Yes, long ago. I really find those inconsiderate people very irritating. So, thats the reason i chose her poster? Let me rephrase it (again) , because what she wrote was completely what I was thinking. Yup, so lets get started on my experiences!

#1 . Please wait patiently behind the Yellow line.
I don't know why, i actually seen people who are so called "gan cheong" rushing to the Mrt door when the train was still stopping halfway. Like, whats so excited or so rush about? The MRT train haven't even stop, you wanted to go in? Why not just patiently wait till the MRT train literally STOP & OPEN-THE-DOOR then you walk in, or like somehow cross the yellow line. Then, it won't cause crowd near the door. Main thing to stand behind the yellow line is for your own safety, preventing from any unnecessary accident.

#2 . Rushing and pushing.
There's a time, or can be said many times, people are pushing me in the train or maybe outside the train. This scene must be happening in a crowded, squeezy train. This is REAL annoying! Most of their faces was total black, grumpy and they are always frowning. They just think of their ownsleves and never think of others, i really can't stand their attitude. Their attitude annoyed me damn lots, i don't know what for they gave attitude. People are rolling eye at me, or even made out some "impatient" / "being irritated" sounds. Er hey? When this situation happned on me, i will just stunned there and felt like giving them one thight slap. Its actually fine, but look at their expressions, their faces, it feels like everyone owe them or what.

They pushed people and then gave them attitude.

Totally no logic. These inconsiderate people should  put themselves in OUR shoes. Reason being, we also squeezing with the pack of people right? Its not only them squeezing in the train, we are human beings too, so who doesn't feel uncomfortable. What to do, no choice but to bear with it as we don't own the train. It is a public transport for everyone,  not only for you. Problem can be solved easily, when you need to alight, you can just say a "excuse me" politely, maybe with a smile. Then, when people saw you, they will be happy to move for you. Love is beter than hate right? ;)

#3 .  People are not moving in the train.
You guys know that MRT trains will always packed around 6PM-7.30PM. I hate going home between that time , reason being, #1 too squeezing, #2 people are not willing to move in for the people outside. I had no idea why people don't want to move in more when there are still plenty of spaces inside. Thats time, my Mom was rushing me home, and because of the people's act, i reached home late. I missed like about 3-4 trains because of those inconsiderate people who doesn't want to move their feets. I was extremely angry, because of them, people outside can't get in to the train then ending up gonna wait for another one, another, another and another one.

They should just move in, occupied all the spaces to allow us broading the train. And so, people don't need to waste their time waiting for more trains to come. I suggest that the people from SMRT can kindly come up and ask the passenger in the train to move in, so they will listen better than ignoring us. Or coming out more posters or video to encourage them to be more considerate.

#4 . Letting up seats.
There's time when i injured my leg, but its inner injuries, not outer one, so, i don't appear to be injured. I actually managed to find a seat, yep i sitted down. After a few stops, there was a old lady, or old aunty stood directly infront of me. She was giving me the faster-stand-up-and-give-me-your-seat face. I really don't know what to do, i felt so guilty for nothing, at that point of time, how i wish there's people letting their seats for her. Unfortunately, no one give up their seats.
Another time was there's a old lady standing aside hoping people would give up their seats for her, but no one did. Until people alight , then she got to sit down. I can't do anything for her because i was standing too, so yeah. I was furious at that time, seeing people relaxing using their i-Phones or even acting like they didn't see her. Can't really express my feeling, was too angry.
Again, same problem but slighty different, i see a pregnant lady standing!!!! WHAT!? Can you believe?! No one give up their seats, this is too unacceptable. She stand until she reached her destination. Like, can you believe you're pregnant and no one willing to give up their seats? Think please.

SO.PLEASE.SPREAD.LOVE.CARE.KINDNESS.

Be a considerate passenger.
