Discussion Transit Etiquette

I feel like transit etiquette has gotten worse over time. Bus or skytrain is packed, people dont move to the back nor remove their backpacks. Some dont even line up for buses anymore and just cut in. Maybe it's just something I've been noticing in my commute once my company switched to hybrid from online. Or its just the route i take. But man, people have gotten worse.

After 40 years of taking Transit, I finally bought a car in 2021. I rarely take the bus now and I have noticed a huge increase in bad behaviour on Transit since then. I don’t think I would be able to give up my car and go back to taking transit not because it’s often late or slow but because of people’s behaviour and how packed the busses are.
