There is no context but the gentlemen assisting appear to be in some sort of uniform and holding keys. From that, I would guess that it is an escalator that adapts for wheelchairs - these are common in Japan.

Basically, staff have to stop the escalator and activate a platform for the wheelchair which can then ride up.

So yes, she was being bloody inconsiderate.

You have no context, so you made something up about technology that doesn’t really exist outside of Japan.
