So, transport etiquette is a very complex thing in our daily life. But, without paying attention to this, we still try to tell you about how well-educated people behave in public transport.
A bit about etiquette
As it does not sound surprising, but because of the boorish behavior of an ill-mannered person not only in a public place, but also in transport, it can easily spoil the mood until the end of the day. For this reason, for the benefit of a good and positive mood and in order to avoid undesirable stresses, you should remember several rules of conduct we proposed in public transport.
1) If you eat in a subway car, remember that you should never rely on your back on the rail, which is located at the entrance to the car. If you do this, you will narrate the person sitting behind, than to cause his discontent most. Here is the reason for the undesirable conflict that you so want to avoid.
2) If a person is sitting next to you, in transport, reading something: a newspaper, a book, or even a letter, do not try to look into its resource for reading, try to read something there. And even more so find useful in this text for yourself. Here it will not be out of place to remind that being on public transport, each of its passengers has the full right to their "personal zone". In other words, "personal zone" is the radius of space between passengers, which should have, no more, no less, 25-50 centimeters. Breaking this space, not counting a crowded salon in the rush hour, is not recommended at all.
3) In case you are given a place, you should never give it up. Just take this place and do not forget to thank the person who gave it to you. Remember that by giving up your attention, you can put a passenger and part-time educated person in a very embarrassing position for him.
4) Also, if you want to behave correctly in transport, remember that you have to give up the place yourself. Especially it concerns elderly people, disabled people, pregnant women, women with infants or just small children. Give way, do not forget to say such words as: "Sit down, please." If you simply rise silently from the spot without telling these words to a specific addressee, you can simply create a situation where the place you just vacated can be seated by another person who does not know how to behave properly in such a situation. This is a very frequent example of how your courtesy can be done in vain.
5) If you eat in a crowded bus or a taxi. And, at the same time, you are far from the exit. So, that approaching the stop you need, try to prepare for the exit in advance, in order to avoid sudden advancement throughout the salon through all people directly on their feet as well as their "heads".
"Let your pen? "
In addition, how to properly behave in the transport itself among the other passengers, you also need to know the mandatory moments of the lady's behavior. For example, the exit of a woman from the cabin of a fixed-route taxi, a bus and so on. At first glance, everything is simple: a man always has to go first and certainly give his hand to a woman so that she has something to lean on, and not stumble or that she does not lose her balance. And it does not depend on whether the slipper is slippery or not. Or, especially from the nature of a woman or a man. Unfortunately, in this situation, few people know how to do it right. Some women, so quickly and easily "vypargivaet" from the salon of a particular transport, that they do not even have time to touch the hand of a gentleman. But in this business the most important thing is to make it easy and at ease, and that the most important thing at this moment is to touch the man's hand necessarily. Otherwise, it threatens that a man might think that his service is not fully valued dignity. Of course, in the event that you really need support, you can and much stronger, of course within reason, rely on the proposed "helping hand". But to lean on all the weight, still not worth it. By the way, from the outside it will look very not aesthetically, and even the man himself, maybe just not ready for such a manifestation of your physical strength.
Most often, you can see that a man leaving the transport lays a hand lightly to a girl carrying heavy bags. In this situation it will be much better and more correct to look if the man himself takes the ladies' bags and, going out first, puts them on the ground, and then hands over his hand. But this, of course, often happens in the situation, if this man is your direct companion. In other words, such gentlemen can be seen less and less on the streets of our country.
So we examined together with you the basic lessons of etiquette, which tell us how it is recommended to behave in public transport.
And as a conclusion I want to add that always try to behave very restrained and polite. Stepped on the foot of a standing passenger - ask for forgiveness, you gave way or an unfamiliar guy at the exit gave his hand - always do not forget to thank, pass the money for the fare to the driver - accompany it with the magic word "please! ". And lastly, if you see boorish and uncultured behavior addressed to one of the passengers - never answer him in the same way. Simply sometimes keep silent, thereby showing your culture and good manners and avoiding a conflict situation. And by his negative response to his behavior, you just drop to the level of this person. Successful to you and pleasant trips!
