Priority seat

Priority seats have been designated in public transport vehicles by certain transport operators to allow elderly, disabled, pregnant women and the injured to ride public transport the equal basis with normal people. Priority seats can be found on various public transportation, including the mass transit railways, buses, minibuses, and trams. A slogan like "Please offer your seat to anyone in need" is often found displayed besides the seat. The above group of people has the priority to have these seats. In most of the cases, there is no regulation to restrict the users of priority seats, but people are expected to offer their seats to those in need.
==Background==
Under the principle of “Barrier Free Environment”, the idea of “priority seats” was first introduced in northern Europe. Providing an unimpeded, effortlessly accessible and ideal living environment to all people is the final goal. Over the past centuries, the idea of priority seats spread to Asian countries such as Japan, Taiwan and Korea. These three are the most significant examples, due to a cultural emphasis on politeness, that the younger generation is expected to offer seats to elderly, otherwise, it will be regarded as disrespectful. Apart from Asian nations, countries like Australia, Malaysia, Singapore and China, as well as Hong Kong are examples. In addition, some countries may require passengers to show their priority seat cards to prove they are eligible, for instance the “Southern Railway” of Australia, “National Rail” of Britain.
