What's Trending: Feet on seats? Loud music? You could be fined $500 in Singapore

View descriptionShare
 

From blasting TikTok videos without earphones to putting your feet on the seat, we’ve all encountered that bus commuter. But from September 23, some of these behaviours could actually land you with a fine of up to $500.

On What's Trending, Hongbin Jeong, Nadiah Koh and Alexandra Parada look at Singapore’s new rules for public buses, bus interchanges and terminals, what behaviours are covered, who can issue an offence notification, and where the line should be drawn between being inconsiderate and committing an offence.

Could the new rules make public transport more pleasant, or will commuters end up policing one another? And what other bus behaviours do you think should be fine-worthy?
