I'm serious when I say I am so done with this shit. Foot riding is unacceptable behaviour, especially in wet, wintery weather. I don't know if I need to sew myself up some spandex and a cape but I went at the foot riders hard last night on the 8:13pm LSE.
In honour of my vigilante justice, I've resurrected the foot rider banner.
It was too dark to take a picture on the bus but this one dude had folded himself up in the seat so that his dirty workboots were resting on the back of the headrest of the seat in front of him. He was busy playing a game of Pac Man on his phone, with no headphones, I might add.
For Christ's sake, he hadn't been on the bus for more than 2 minutes after we boarded and this is how he settles in?
So I asked him to have some respect for public property and refrain from using the seat in front of him as a footstool. I said it loud enough for the driver to hear, all the while thinking, back me up here buddy.
He did.
What I'd really like to know is why it is not mandatory that all CSAs include in their announcements the request to keep feet off the seats. It shouldn't be arbitrary.

I have heard some of them - especially on the really wet days - mention the no feet on seats. I have even seen the GO-stappo ask people to remove their feet. But since people need to actually be policed and penalized, I realize that ain't nuttin gonna change.
