Singapore may fine bus passengers who blast music
Original: Most bus passengers know how annoying it is when a fellow commuter blasts music or has a loud conversation on speakerpho
Singapore is moving to penalize bus passengers who play music loudly or hold speakerphone conversations, with fines that could reach hundreds of dollars. The measure targets everyday commuting irritations that many riders complain about, and it is drawing wide attention as people debate whether fines are the right way to enforce courtesy on public transport.
Why now: People are reacting to the novelty and strictness of fining commuters for loud music or calls on buses.
