"Bitter" Reaction Erupts Over Photo... Stroller Left Behind Outside Elevator

Next news.

It is titled "Only Strollers and Wheelchairs Left Behind."

It is a story about a subway station elevator where other passengers boarded first, leaving only a stroller and a wheelchair user behind.

Look at the photo.

It was posted on social media on the 25th.

If you look closely, at the bottom of the elevator, yes, several passengers are on board.

On the left, a motorized wheelchair, and on the right, a stroller are left behind.

The writer wrote, "As soon as the elevator doors opened, quick-footed people rushed in and disappeared," adding, "We cannot even use the stairs, and it felt bitter."

Among netizens, reactions sharing similar experiences continued.

One person vented, "Worrying that a stroller might inconvenience others, you keep waiting for the next one, the next one, and end up a mother who stands there forever."

The Act on Promotion of Transportation Convenience of Transportation Vulnerable Persons defines people with disabilities, the elderly, and pregnant women as transportation vulnerable persons.

However, there are no separate regulations forcing general passengers to yield the boarding order for elevators or punishing them for violating it.

Still, it makes us think once again whether consideration for others is truly essential in our society.
