What Is The Most Annoying Behavior On BART Trains?

As you prepare for another week of commuting, what rude or selfish actions bother you the most when you ride BART trains?

Written by David Mills

If you ride BART enough times, you'll see them.

The people who sleep sprawled out across a couple seats.

Passengers who leave their suitcases or backpacks in the middle of an aisle.

How about the guy who thinks it's OK to eat strong-smelling Chinese food inside a crowded train car?

Or the patrons who think it's alright to sit on the steps of the stairs, making it difficult for others to walk up or down.

Now that the BART strike is over, at least for the moment, we'd thought we'd ask Patch readers what behavior most annoys them on the transit trains.

It doesn't have to be as outlandish as some of the folks shown on the "BART Idiot Hall of Fame" Facebook page that Patch spotlighted last year.

But tell us in the comments section the worst offense you've seen or perhaps bad behavior that is common on BART trains.

If you have photos, all the better. Post them with this story.
