Which unwritten rule of British public transport should never, ever be broken?
We may not talk to each other on the Tube, but we all know the rules. Rank these sacred commandments of British commuting from most to least important.
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
No talking on the morning Tube
The unspoken pact that keeps London functioning. Break it and you'll receive the full force of the collective glare.
B
Stand on the right of the escalator
A rule so sacred that TfL had to run experiments just to consider changing it. Tourists beware.
C
Let passengers off before boarding
Yet somehow this needs announcing at every station. The rage of a blocked doorway is unmatched.
D
Move down inside the carriage
Nothing tests British passive-aggression quite like people clustering by the doors while the middle sits empty.
E
Never sit next to someone if other seats are free
On an empty bus or train, choosing the seat directly beside a stranger is practically a criminal act.
