Passengers of "Rīgas satiksme" seek to be polite and obliging during trips

The results of the opinion poll published on "Rīgas satiksme" website on www.rigassatiksme.lv in August show that 48% of the website users seek to be polite and show respect for others.

Another 22% of passengers seek to treat other people in the manner they would like to be treated themselves. 17% of respondents confirm that when they see a passenger needing help or seat, they gladly offer it. A minority of respondents, 13%, admit not thinking about this issue. 1311 respondents participated in the opinion poll.

"Rīgas satiksme" is implementing campaign "More pleasant trips!" to urge passengers to be mutually polite, during which passengers are encouraged to show mutual politeness, tolerance and understanding. During the campaign passengers from different social groups tell what makes their trips in public transport nice, thus making other passengers to think about mutual understanding in public transport.

Hilda and Tālivaldis say that they have nice trips when vehicles are emptier and there are free seats. A young mother, Agnese, is happy about low-floor public transport vehicles and calls on passengers not to occupy the space designated for a baby carriage. Aivars, in turn, likes to go by public transport when people are not crowding at the entrance, are not noisy and do not disturb others.
