A father took to TikTok to voice his displeasure at commuters who did not care to give way for him to board the lift even though he was travelling with a stroller.
Mr Pavel Semenov posted about his negative encounter at Caldecott MRT station on TikTok last Friday .A group of commuters were shown crowding around the lift despite signs reminding commuters to give way to priority passengers.
Speaking in Russian, Mr Semenov said in the video: “Short video about what priority queue is in Singapore.” He highlighted the priority queue sign, which gives elderly, pregnant women and parents travelling in strollers priority to board the lift first.At one point Mr Semenov sighed heavily and said, “Metro in Singapore, in principle is convenient in everything. But unfortunately, people here are very strange.”
As the lift descended to the basement floor, the crowd immediately squeezed into the lift, paying no heed to Mr Semenov and his children. In his caption, Mr Semenov even tags “Give Way Glenda”, the Land Transport Authority’s mascot to encourage passengers to give way to passengers alighting the bus or train.While some are empathetic towards Mr Semenov’s plight, others felt that he was entitled in believing that he should be given priority.
