Recent conflicts over priority seats have sparked a debate on whether to keep or abolish them, with Taipei Metro stating that they are unable to unilaterally remove the priority seats due to central regulations. The incidents include a young man being slapped by an elderly man for not giving up his seat, escalating the discussion on the issue. Taipei Metro emphasized that priority seats are set up in compliance with the Disability Rights Protection Act and regulations from the Ministry of Transportation, and they will continue to promote courtesy among passengers and consider enhancing enforcement measures in the future.
