It seems as though the people of Calgary have lost their sense of personal space. At least, when it comes to public transit. There should be weight sensors in all of the trains that prevent the train from moving if there is too much weight in any one car. Then they should set the maximum weight to the average of half as many people they usually fit into the thing. For christ’s sake, it’s almost like they want transit to be hateful, smelly and uncomfortable. I’m tempted to stand uncomfortably close to people when the train is empty… just to make a point, but I fear it would be lost on most. Also it would be awkward and I probably would never actually have the courage to do it.
It’s nice to think about though.
I would not ride a train in Japan if it were that full. I would just be late.
That would be Japan
When I was in apan, they had people who pushed you into the trains to pack as many people as possible. Those rumours are TRUE
