Tip 1: Let passengers get off first.
When travelling on the Tube, DLR, or the overground
you need to let passengers get off first, as the driver will not leave you
behind he has a mirror to look into to make sure everyone is safely on so do
not rush. Also it is a timesaver instead of barging through if you wait those
few seconds it could avoid an argument allowing you to save time.
Tip 2: Wear Headphones if you want to listen to
music.
On any form of public transport in London, if you
want to listen to music please use your headphones no one wants to hear Eminem
or 50 cent or any bhangra blasting from your phone it is rude and also people might
have a headache so you might want to be courteous and use your headphones.
Tip 3: Give Priority to certain individuals.
When on the bus or train or DLR there is always
priority seats for certain individuals please give them these seats as it makes
the journey more pleasant for them, and also it makes the journey less painful
for others as they don’t have to wait if there is an argument.
Tip 4: Do not block the escalators.
When on the escalators it is an etiquette to stand
on the right (It says it there) so people
who are in a rush for anything can walk up the left
hand side of the escalators, making it easier for everyone to get along and
have a lovely time travelling in London.
Tip 5: Oyster Cards.
In London to travel you need an oyster card but
sometimes there are those certain individuals who will hold up the bus because
they haven’t topped up their oyster or they have an invalid oyster card. So my
best Advice is to TOP IT UP before you leave otherwise it’ll annoy people and
also annoy you as you will have to pay a fine.
And that is it for now, these tips are there to
help you commute and I hope you have learnt quite a bit on London’s travel
etiquettes.
