shut up on the PA when you're on the train for a period of time it tells you standing passengers do not stand against the doors so if you didn't get the memo do not stand against the doors
are you new? the trains will automatically stop and the door for open when that red bulb is pushed down
You made that commentary knowin its warnings every 2 minutes letting us know not to stand near the doors. This just shows you don’t listen 💀
CTA is gonna lose funding watch what happens it’s coming
wow.
wow
well... I wouldn't wanna be locked in the train either. Keep that mf manual
dang how u kno he was homeless ma'm
it's not like it's tilted I've rode a couple stops with it open it's kinda cool in the summer
Belly Aching and posting on Web. Call the Mayor, your Mayor, he is who y'all elected. The rest of the world is "Do We Care" mind frame, "betting on that"
how are so many ppl not street smart 🤓🧠😞 it blows me to see that ppl have no situational awareness 🤨😰🤨 they clearly say do not stay near the doors
If this is true please send this to the mayor and the president of Cta since the mayor appoints the president of the company. Good luck and please keep us posted.
omg pull the level and doors close
Guess what they don’t CARE
parents need to do better
WARNING COMES BEFORE DESTRUCTION
Man if you don’t sit yo ass down or get a car
until that train go crazy and you can't open them on the go and jump out..just let it be..dont like ya self in a speeding bomb you can't control yourself..ijs.
They're supposed to be supposed to automatically stop the train
those doors are supposed to open in an emergency whether the train is moving or not you want to be able to open it in case there's a fire so you can jump out and not burn to death
My city
and let's also talk about the uptick from the unhoused community is this some kind of unhinged revolution??? cause it's too freaking frequent now to be coincidentally just happening??? of is it by a design
CTA is always WILD! 🥰
I know this dude. He’s a real creep. I see him all the time going to work.
Never stand by the doors 🚪 😳🥺😰
wow mom husband is in the hospital at UIC this has shocked me no nothing shocks me anymore 🤷 but I am like wow 😳.. I hope they take care of this as soon as possible. SMDH..
😭😳😳😳😳 crazy 😧😧 and scary 😲😳
Always be able to protect yourself
it's crazy they want people $but control crazy people when established means open its their responsibility to protect nd cta used 2 but like everything else time goes on they stopped all this crime on cta is disgusting government is now stepping in but not Chicago government all they can is its safe their in denial so they can corrupt the $
now watch wat I say government is now stepping in want police back on cta watch them try 2 raise the fare mind u thousands of people ride cta nd they get funding where the helly is that $ is corrupted in2 upper management pockets its disgusting
well no shit
