Unbelievable! Commuter shocks passengers with bizarre public transport behaviour
- Replies 14
We’ve all had to share public transport with some pretty unpleasant characters at one point or another.
You know the type — the unnecessarily loud ones, the rude ones, and even the occasional aggressive ones.
But one man might just take the cake as the rudest commuter ever.
A video of the man’s bizarre behaviour was uploaded on TikTok recently, showing him taking his boots and socks off before putting his bare feet on a seat in front of him.
While displaying his feet on the Sydney train, he was also looking at other passengers with a grin on his face, as if the whole thing was something to laugh at.
And if that wasn’t enough, he then proceeded to lay his socks across the seat opposite him!
The video then cuts to the laughing video poster, who captioned the video ‘(Laughing my a** off), I’m shaken’.
The video has had over 40,000 views as of writing.
Here’s to hoping none of us ever come across a similar situation!
Now, the video has also brought to mind a few things other commuters find absolutely frustrating with Aussie public transport.
A poster on Reddit asked fellow Aussies to share their top public transport pet peeves, and the users came up with relatable answers.
In general, noise was something many hated hearing.
One user said they hated loud telephone conversations ‘for the entire 50-minute bus ride’ done without pausing!
Another said the same of loud exchanges.
‘Any unnecessary conversations. The whole train doesn’t want to hear about your family drama.’
And the icing on the noisy cake from a third user: ‘People playing videos at top f*****g volume of their phones or speakers.’
‘No one else wants to listen to your God d**n awful music or videos. Be polite and considerate of others, it’s really not that hard!’
That last one probably waited a long time to have his say, eh?
Aside from noise-related complaints, other users took aim at bad habits.
One user said she despised people who didn’t move into aisles on full trains and those who board before other passengers are able to exit.
Another was disappointed that cleanliness was in short supply among commuters.
‘People who leave behind their coffee cup, burger wrapper, crumbs, or used tissues. Mate, use the bin,’ they said.
Another user said: ‘People who don't give up seats — especially in the disabled seating area — to elderly, disabled, or pregnant people.’
And then there were also stranger pet peeves one wouldn’t expect even being mentioned…
‘People licking the train windows,’ a user said.
And lastly, another added: ‘Blokes having a w**k. True story.’
Er… perhaps some stories are better left untold… (half) kidding!
If by any chance you’d like to read more about wild and wacky commuter tales, be sure to check out how one plane passenger thousands of feet in the air found themselves with an extra foot on their flight.
Then there’s also this couple who were caught doing something better done behind closed doors… on a bus!
So, what is your reaction to this story? Have you had the unfortunate experience of commuting with rude passengers?
Tell us your thoughts and experiences below!
