A man in his 70s on a Taipei MRT train got into a physical altercation with a young man who refused to give up his priority seat because he had a stomachache. The elderly man hit the young man on the head, leading to a conflict among other passengers as well. The police were called, and the young man filed a complaint against the elderly man for assault. The incident emphasizes that priority seats are not exclusively for the elderly, and empathy should be considered when requesting someone to give up a seat.
