Mga madalas itanong

Can a security guard give tickets for fare evasion?

Usually not. On many systems, fares and transit bylaws are enforced by special constables or peace officers. A guard does only what the post orders assign and calls the right people for the rest.

What should I do if someone goes onto the tracks?

Do not follow them. Alert the control centre or use the platform intercom or help phone right away so trains can be stopped, and keep other riders back.

Is an unattended bag always a bomb threat?

No, most are lost property. But you cannot tell by looking, so do not touch or move it. Ask nearby people if it is theirs, keep people back and report it.

How is a transit guard different from a mall guard?

The legal powers are the same, but transit adds moving trains, power rails, crowds and many agencies. Knowing who to call, and how fast, matters more.
