As anyone knows who follows Metro’s Twitter account, we occasionally get an earful about the issue of rider etiquette. And perhaps no issue gets the collective goat of riders more than people standing in such a way that they block those who want up escalators to get where they’re going a little faster.

With that in mind, our marketing team has produced a series of videos to help promote better transit behavior. including the one posted above. Some folks just don’t know better — okay, some haven’t the slightest clue — and the videos gently and humorously help straighten them out. 🙂

There is also a new ‘rider etiquette’ page on metro.net that features the videos, which we’ll also be featuring on The Source and our social media.
