Polite subway passengers gave rise to the dispute in the network

On Reddit noticed on the video where the Japanese subway passengers waited until a disabled woman gets off the train. The video caused controversy among users of Reddit, the post garnered more than 40 thousand likes and over 700 comments.

A civil servant from the video awaits the arrival of the train with a portable ramp in his hands, then lays it in advance at the entrance for women in a wheelchair. At this time the other passengers calmly waiting until the woman leaves the train, passing her and not moving.

During the download an error has occurred.

This friendly attitude has caused a mixed reaction in the comments. Some users felt that the reasons for this behavior lie in the differences in culture: the Japanese called the “collectivists” as opposed to “individualists” to Europeans. Others noted that this is a unique case, in other situations, “the Japanese jump in on the run in crowded wagons”.
