Eating in MRT
-
and here we are laughing at those 3 people who got robbed in JB.
Even in our own place, we are chickens.
It is not about eating or drinking in the MRT, it is about rules and responsibility.
Imagine spilling your coke? or dropping your fries?
Yes, for a mother feeding a baby milk, or someone in a cough, taking a lozenges, I am okie, but plain eating. I am just amazed.
During my time, I was at AMK train stn, and these two St Nic gals came in with bubble tea and they drank it in front of the MRT guy, so this MRT guy just looked away. And he is working in Bishan MRT. I am just appalled.
What should we do? blow the whistle or not?
so one day, you got mistaken for someone, got beaten by 10guys, and every one just watched and later some kind souls called the ambulance. 1hr later, police called your family, to ask them to go to the morgue.
So the question comes, should anyone stand up? Yes or not? -

hmm... from the past few posts, some forumers have admitted to eating in the train. can u guys tell us why u did that?
it seems that putting up signs and informing people that they are liable for a fine of up to $500 has not really deterred anybody from doing it. is it bcos SMRT does not enforce it or such "threats" are mere "empty threats" and we singaporeans have gotten so used to it that we know that noting would happen if we got caught. -
lol...because the other commuters never kp you...plus you never see any mrt staff around to catch you...Originally posted by saline:hmm... from the past few posts, some forumers have admitted to eating in the train. can u guys tell us why u did that?

Last week I was in transitlink and a guy dumped some wrappers at the back then the bus driver saw and walked back to kan him. The bus driver also shouted at him to throw it into the bin. Asshole deserved it.

im alrite with ple eatin stuffs like sweet, sandwich , burger , eg. inside the train .
Just dont litter or dirty the seat and floor can liao. Sit in a corner eat.
And no char kway teow pls
i always see ple drink bubbletea in mrt , old , young also have . bus also .
conclusion : bubbletea easier to smuggle in -
Personally, I don't mind if a person eats something light such as sweets and chocolates. As for french fries, I think it's also ok as long as they don't cause a mess and chew loudly in the train. If you were to bring some food like nasi lemak, better find a secluded seat to eat where no one is looking or else, kena fine la.

so i didnt learnt any lessons. so i carry on being inconsiderate.
but the ultimate reason is that i like to buy smelly toufu eat in train to make the train stink and make people angry. -
i salute whoever dares to have steamboat on the train!

then its about tolerance for others liao...not being racist but alot of people have body odours..especially when u have one sitting beside you on the bus...but what can i do...just tolerate lor...Originally posted by saline:but wat about odours? burgers, fries all have smell one leh... the smell can get quite sick after a while....
if u start to get sick smelling the fries...then maybe you should kindly tell the guy that the smell of the fries is bothering you and ask him to seal it up... -
ya....and pls dun let me see ppl eating 'see hums'
-
i think if u can't stand the smell, maybe change another seat or something?
sometimes, even if the food is not being eaten in the train, you can already smell it.. -
how about not eating in the trains? i think singapore's use of such "FINE" signs are no longer as effective as before. maybe cos nobody really enforce it? all just open and close one eye? true? time to change tactics? lol..

well maybe cause eating in the train is not hazardous as like other stuff...Originally posted by saline:how about not eating in the trains? i think singapore's use of such "FINE" signs are no longer as effective as before. maybe cos nobody really enforce it? all just open and close one eye? true? time to change tactics? lol.. -
While there are rules in trains that eat and drinking can merit a $1000 fine, we should not get carried away entirely simply because a person falls in that catagory.Originally posted by saline:hmm... from the past few posts, some forumers have admitted to eating in the train. can u guys tell us why u did that?

The crux of not eating in MRTs is basically to prevent:
1. the proliferation of pungent food smell
2. dirtying up the localised area
3. basic courtesy to your fellow commuter
If a person can do eat/drink WITHOUT violating the above 3, then i have no issues. Usually, examples are taking medicine, drinking plain water from a carrier bottle, baby drinking from a milk bottle, popping a sweet into your mouth etc.
Anything along that line should be fine.
Eating breakfast on the train (any form of breakfast for that matter) should not be practiced and should be treated as a violation. (inset: prompting for citizen's duty to tell the errant guy off).
Worst kind is parents giving food to their kids on the train. These families should be THROWN OUT by their fellow commuters. -
