It is normal for people to occupy seats in study rooms and libraries, but what is quite surprising is that some people actually occupy seats on the subway during the morning rush hour and transfer them to the public for 5 yuan per time.Recently, a man in Shanghai raised eyebrows by offering 5 yuan to sell a subway seat during the morning rush hour.According to the man's account, he is also an office worker. After discovering that many people wanted subway seats during the morning and evening rush hours, he started buying and selling paid seats.
Anyone who needs a seat must pay 5 yuan in advance. After both parties agree on the station and carriage, he will give up his seat to the other person when he arrives at the station.
So far, he has provided two paid seats to one passenger, and two others have paid in advance, but the transaction has not yet been completed.
In response to this matter, Shanghai Metro responded, expressing its firm opposition to such behavior. The following is the response:
According to the rail transit passenger regulations, the elderly, young, sick, disabled, pregnant women and those carrying babies have priority in getting on and off the train. Other passengers should take the initiative to give up their seats. Therefore, subway seats should first meet the priority needs of special groups.
Secondly, as a public service facility, subway seats serve all passengers and should be allocated according to the "first come, first served" principle. They should not be monopolized, nor should they become a disguised profit tool for individuals.
Shanghai Metro has always advocated civilized and orderly travel. If any passengers encounter similar incidents, they can promptly report it to the staff or call the service hotline 64370000 to jointly create a warm, harmonious, fair and friendly riding environment.
