Subway Moments That Make You Consider Walking Instead
The subway is a mode of transport where a good day can turn into a real nightmare due to the things you see, the smells, and the cramped conditions in the cars. Often, walking becomes the best option because it's healthier and avoids stress and unpleasant experiences.
The following photos show people with poor hygiene, others occupying more than one seat, others carrying large animals, or eating foods that should be prohibited on the subway due to the odor they produce.
Furthermore, the images also highlight the sheer number of people on the subway during rush hour, who end up crushing, pushing, or stepping on you.
