Disturbing? Take action!
"Rīgas satiksme" together with Riga municipal police has launched a campaign for safety in public transport.
The goal of the campaign is to inform public transport passengers about how they should act in case their safety or comfort in public transport are endangered as well as to urge them not to be indifferent and to be active also in cases where other passengers or public transport vehicle are endangered.
If there is any order violation (passengers in dirty, stinking clothes, loud passengers etc.), don’t be indifferent:
- call police at 110
or
- inform public transport driver.
Every day "Rīgas satiksme" carries more than 400 000 passengers. When passengers were polled about their levels of satisfaction with public transport services and asked about what adverse events their witnessed in public transport, 79% in 2011 and 87% in 2013 answered that „there are individuals in dirty or stinking clothes among passengers”, and 66% in 2011 and 73% in 2013 answered that „there are individuals among passengers whose behaviour disturbs other passengers (e.g. noisy, verbally offending other passengers etc.)”.
During the campaign, visual information will be available inside public transport vehicles and at public transport stops. Download full size image here! (Click on right button of mouse -> Save image as...)
