At 2:30 p.m. on November 28, the scene at the Guangdong Metro Zoo Station was staggering. When a man who drank too much alcohol got off the train, he stubbornly blocked the subway door and did not let the door close in order to get his companion back on the train. Even though the subway tried to close the door several times, it could not stop the man. This scene was filmed by passers-by and uploaded to the Internet, which attracted widespread attention. The drunken man's behavior not only delayed the departure time of the train, seriously affected the travel of other passengers, but also caused a disturbance to public order. Such behavior is undoubtedly irresponsible and undesirable and should be punished by law.
According to reports, the man and his companion took the subway together to reach the zoo station, but the man did not get off the train, trying to stop the door from closing so that his companion could get on the train again. His companion clearly failed to do his duty and did not stop the man's actions in time knowing that he was drunk. Since some subways have strict restrictions on drunk driving, while others are relatively lenient and have no clear regulations. However, regardless of whether drunk drivers are restricted from using the subway or not, the behavior of a drunk person on public transportation is dangerous and poses a potential threat to the travel of others and the equipment of the vehicle.
In this incident that day, when the drunk man and his companion arrived at the zoo station by subway together, the companion had already gotten off the train. The man did not keep up with his companion because he could not accurately tell whether the subway car had arrived at its destination. He leaned against the door, and when the iron door closed, his body blocked the door and he almost fell. The man was bent on buying time for his friend to get on the bus, but this so-called "righteous act" appeared selfish in the eyes of other passengers. Some passengers took out their mobile phone videos to record this unreasonable behavior, some people poked their heads out curiously to see what was going on with this friend, and some people quickly dialed the subway staff ** on the train. Soon, subway staff arrived at the scene and persuaded the man to leave the door. After being educated by the staff, the man agreed to leave the subway station with his companions.
The MTR company later reminded passengers to avoid taking public transportation under the influence of alcohol, and advised them to be accompanied by family or friends when taking the train under the influence of alcohol, and to communicate with station personnel for help if necessary. It is very important for a drunk person to be accompanied by a guardian, but some drinkers knowingly choose to take public transportation alone. This kind of behavior is undoubtedly a sign of irresponsibility for the safety of others and oneself.
In this case, although a foreign object was detected before the subway door was closed, the consequences could have been more serious if other more dangerous objects had been stubbornly blocked at the door. Not only that, but the man's stubborn blocking of the train door will also cause damage to the door and bring a certain economic burden to the operation and maintenance of the subway.
People who have drunk alcohol should avoid public transportation, especially in small spaces such as the subway. They can choose to hail a taxi or other means of transportation to protect their travel without inconveniencing other passengers. Even if you vomit while taking a taxi, it is much better to pay the fare and cleaning fee than to cause odor and confusion in the subway car.
This incident has once again aroused people's attention to drunkenness. Conflicts, brawls, sabotage and other incidents are not uncommon after drinking, and for the knowingly committed behavior of these drunken people, we should not only blame the lack of restrictions and supervision on public transportation, but also call on everyone to be self-disciplined and self-loving.
Alcohol has a fatal effect on a person's behavior as well as on judgment. Some people are very self-contained before they get drunk, but after drinking, they become **uninhibited and act boldly. Alcohol induces the illusion of carelessness, makes people prone to mood swings, and reduces the perception of risks and consequences. That is why all kinds of troublesome and impulsive behaviors occur after drinking.
Individual responsibility is important. A drunk person should fully consider his actions and consequences before drinking, and formulate corresponding countermeasures. They can choose to arrange a private car or arrange an escort with a friend shortly after the drink and avoid public transportation. In addition, family and friends should also do their duty to dissuade and protect them by providing guardianship and support when they travel under the influence of alcohol.
The incident of a drunk man stubbornly blocking the subway door is a wake-up call for us. Taking public transportation is a civilized way to travel, but it also requires common understanding and observance. Drinking and riding is irresponsible, which may not only endanger the safety of others, but also bring unacceptable consequences to yourself.
While developing and progressing in society, we should also take the issue of public order seriously, respect the rules, abide by the law, and jointly create a harmonious social environment. May each of us be able to self-discipline and self-love, stay away from alcohol, and make our own contribution to the prosperity and stability of society.
