The problem with that is that it means a delay. There is no easy answer for when to delay the train for everyone, or when to keep moving until it is handled with a smaller delay.
- Symbiote 9y agoLondon Underground sometimes has posters up, "If you feel unwell, seek a member of staff on the platform" and "when ill on a train, if possible, wait until the train is in a station, where help is more easily available". Also, most of the emergency communications buttons now connect you to speak with the driver. They presumably have a procedure, depending on the problem, but for someone sick they will call ahead "passenger in front of carriage 3".
- concerned_user 9y agoI suspect they are talking about homeless and/or people under influence of alcohol or other substances, not people with health issues that is why "sick passenger" is in quotes. Police probably given up on throwing them out.
- notyourday 9y agoThey are treated the same. "Sick passenger" = train stops, vacate the car, wait for EMT to diagnose.
