As a sometime car, sometime public transport, user in a very congested city, I do find it hard to keep patient at times but I know that aggression is not the answer. In relation to people's rights to travel, I agree that we should focus on the children who do depend on others to move them about up to certain age. So try to put the adults and their varying levels of awareness of others to one side. We are all people whatever the age, heritage, family role, disability etc and all have the right to a decent life including getting about and we have an overstretched system in a society which places the car before public transport. Until that balance is addressed and people are more attracted to buses and trains than cars (even when they have the choice) and we are all prepared to pay according to our means through taxes to get to that position we will continue to see this undignified tussling about who has the most rights. It quite suits a ruling group to have people fighting amongst themselves rather than directing anger at those with the power to improve services for all. Just look at how the unemployed have been set up as a target for the ire of 'respectable' working people. A proper subsidised transport system with sufficient service levels, well-paid staff etc etc is perhaps what we should be fighting for rather than fighting each other. For anyone to generalise about any set of people in the way that is happening here is most unhelpful and anger should be directed to where it is most appropriate.
