   The Washington DC Metro is the opposite. If too many people try to get on and the doors won’t close, they kick EVERYBODY OFF.

   I sure hope the people in the front have to get off at the next station . . . or that no one in the middle needs to get off any time soon!

   This is pretty standard practice there. I’ve seen videos like this in the past. I think the Japanese people are a little more used to being in tight spaces with densely populated areas and the small sleeping quarters in some places to stay overnight.

   I would think crime would be at a minimum because nobody can move!

   I couldn’t do it! I like to have space around me and breathe my “own” air. LOL! Can you imagine being in the middle of all those people with no room to move? My palms are sweating………..

   As I watched with my jaw dropped, I realized why the Japanese seem to have less sense of “personal space” in public places. It has helped my “forebearing spirit” to understand more of their culture. Fascinating!

   Is this the tactics you will use to pack your car for vacation? “Come on family or I may have to go subway on you…”

   As a foreigner living in Japan, I can vouch for this video. However, this is only typical of rush hour.

   Because of the crowd, groping, can be a problem which is why Japan Railways has provided a “Female Only” car to avoid men taking advantage of the situation.

   Imagine trying to get a stroller on there—–I’ve had to do that once with 5 children. Not so fun! Which is why we travel AFTER or BEFORE rush hour.
