Travel Etiquette May 17, 2013

The descriptions of etiquette on public transportation in various countries continues as students strive to improve their writing skills. 

Roy from China tells us, perhaps somewhat humorously: 

In my country I don’t know about subway riding because there are no subways in my city.  So I can just tell about etiquette on the buses and on the [intercity] train.

First, you’d better not have food on the bus.  The smell isn’t a good thing for other people.

Second, you’d better give your seat to the young people [!] and the old people on the bus.

Last, you can’t fight with others and you can’t say bad words to others.  If you do that, everyone will hit you because your quality is low, very low!  It’s the same rule on the train or on the bus.

You can have food on the train and you needn’t give your seat to young people or old people.  One ticket means one seat.  If you don’t have a ticket, you can’t get on the train.

That’s the etiquette on the bus and on the train.  It’s very easy, right?

Maybe we could ask Roy why we have to give our seats to young people!
