OYHZ (Hui Zi): Woman's leg gets caught between train and MRT platform

A lady's leg got caught in between the train and MRT platform after being pushed 'out' from the train.

It happened during morning rush-hour incident at Little India station and she was lucky to escape with just bruises.

Seriously, why have the train passengers gotten this violent?

I'm not a morning person. So I totally understand the morning rush, unhappiness and early morning syndromes.

But to create such pain on others just because of that, why?

Madam Ong, who is in her 40s, told The Straits Times yesterday: "About three people exiting the train pushed me from the back, even though I was trying to give way by stepping out of the train first so they could get out."

The above might be a one-sided story from the injured lady, but I believe there is some truth in it.

I have experienced being elbowed, pushed & knocked by branded bags held, by ladies you would think are such 淑女s if you see them outside the MRT stations.

And those incidents did not even take place in a crowded train!

They seem to be upset that they cannot have train carriages catered specially for each of them individually to board and alight without any form of 'obstacles', no hand rail/poles/bars, no nothing. If they see anything in sight, they have to KILL IT with their branded bags.

And by intentionally knocking into others (it's actually considered as assualt if the person bothers to report it) for NO REASON, they ruin the mood of those people who might in turn do things to pass it on to more people further.

It's such a damn vicious cycle.
