The Anonymous Widower

Am I The Only Person Who Feels That Wheelie Cases Should Be Restricted?

I have a vision defect, which means I sometimes miss things low down on the left.

I haven’t flattened a toddler yet, but I’m always on the lookout in case I do.

But I’m getting rather fed up with people who wheel more than one case at the same time.

Several times, I’ve been sent to the ground, as someone has wheeled a case from behind my left side and then turned sharply in front of me.

The latest fad, is that one case isn’t enough, so let’s have more.

I got mixed up with a party of about twelve tourists in Bond Street station, where I was walking at a moderate pace between the Piccadilly and Victoria Lines. One meadow lady twice tried to bump me out of the way.

I did swear!

And then I had my revenge. We all needed to get up a short flight of stairs and I deliberately crossed from left to right twice on the stairs, whilst they were struggling with their heavy cases.

Luckily the stairs and the heavy cases slowed them down and I was able to get my |Victoria Line train.

I do think though, that something should be done to curb the number of heavy cases people take on the Underground.

Regularly, you see people with two and in one case I saw someone with four!
