Subway etiquette

After receiving loads of complaints about noise on the subway, the city of Shanghai banned subway riders from using speakers on their electronic devices, including mobile phones. So far, Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Wuhan and Kunming have all banned noise on subway cars.

An inspector of Shanghai rail transport said subway workers would first try to persuade riders using noisy devices to stop; if it fails, then the officers will refer the matter to the public security department.
