Due to the dumbing of America in recent years, many passengers totally ignore both the signs on the trains and the PA announcements opting instead to assume that certain types of cars are restricted to certain lines. The N is predominantly R-160s but an occasional R-160 does show up on the R so passengers should be alert that any type of car can be used on any line at any time. I feel no sympathy for passengers who are too ignorant to be aware of anything and everything that is going on around them. The other day while waiting for the R shuttle at 59 St, a female passenger was performing some sort of function on he I phone or whatever the device was. when the train entered the station and opened the doors,she continued to punch the keys and only walked towards the train after she was finished. I was hoping that the C/R would have closed the doors before she had a chance to board so that maybe she might learn to prioritize her activities by having to wait another 20 min for the next shuttle. |
