I almost witnessed a horrible accident when a woman squeezed her rather large stroller onto an escalator and it somehow got wedged, thankfully she managed to have help from a quick thinking man in front who helped un-wedge it, but a different situation flashed in front of my eyes when I thought of what could have happened if he wasn't there, she was panicking. It always makes me cringe when I see people going up with strollers, which you are NOT supposed to do.

I agree, so many questions. My scarf is always around my neck and tucked into my coat, so I never worry about it getting caught.
ReplyDeleteBad memories of the Union escalator incident in 2006. Glad they took them out.
