The recent conflicts over priority seats have sparked debates on whether priority seats should be abolished. Incidents of verbal insults and physical altercations by seniors demanding seat offerings have raised concerns that priority seats not only fail to promote goodwill but also deepen generational divides. Priority seats originate from a system in Nordic countries aimed at accommodating and assisting individuals with disabilities. Over time, the concept evolved to prioritize seating for pregnant women, the elderly, the injured, the sick, children, etc. However, controversies arise when certain individuals misuse the seats, leading to moral coercion and emotional manipulation. While Taiwan grapples with priority seat debates, countries like the USA, Japan, South Korea, Germany, and Australia each have their own unique seat-giving cultures that offer valuable insights for improving public transportation environments.
