Do priority seats ever work? Uncle stands while youngsters sit

STOMPer Myra is disappointed with the youngsters on the MRT who refused to give up their seats for this elderly uncle.

The STOMPer wrote:

"I saw this uncle standing in the MRT and even though there were youngsters around, nobody offered to give up their seat.

"The young girl behind the uncle saw him and continued playing games.

"Where is the respect for elders?

"I ended up giving my seat to the old uncle.

"Does the reserved seat system actually work?"

They don't work actually. Last Friday I was on the way home on the circle line at DG. Saw this Pinoy guy sit himself down on a reserved seat just as the station staff walked pass him. The staff definitely saw the Pinoy guy but just carried on with his routine check at the terminus

Ten Commandments of public transport:

1. You and I paid $$$ to board the transport.
2. All people are equal.
3. I'm entitled to sit as much as you are, subjected to availability of seats.
4. Seats are of a "first-come-first-sit" basis.
5. Do not expect and behave as if people owe you the seats just because of your plight (if any)
6. Giving up seats is a privilege and purely voluntary. You can only wait for seats to be vacant but you cannot expect.
7. If people do not give up seats, just forget it.
8. If you're really desperate to sit, take a taxi. You can sit all you want.
9. If taxis are expensive, then stop whining and remain standing and wait for an available seat.
10. Don't preach about kindness and karma when in office politics, everyone backstabs to fight for promotions. Will you give up your promotions?
