    I think the price you pay for a ticket is not important its about being nice to each other. sometimes people have diffrent expectations. The rules are not clear cut. Sometimes we get mad when people have diffrent ideas of write and wrong? Some people just don't think so its you should always be polite at 1st.

    I would say if I was on a busy train and some person had a suitcase on the seat and it did not fit in the lugage thing then I would leave him be. Its very tiering traveling and suitcases are heavy and hard to move. A handbag or single shopping bag is much easyier.

    When I was pregnant and had a 2 year old with me nobody gave me a seat. Actully one man almost pushed me to the ground to beat me to a seat. I did get my revenge though:-). I had a tin of soup in a bag and 'accidently' hit him hard with it in the face when the bus jerked. Incidnetly soon after that I started to inform the driver that he would not be moving the bus until I and my children were seated.

    Most bus drivers are really nice and kind. Some are horrible aggresive people. I had a bus try to run me over for making him wait (1o seconds) for a man with crutches at a hospital. You would think they would put a careful tolerant driver on the hospital route? I still remember him shouting, get on or off I am running late. He honestly tried to stop the bus but not let anyone on.
