If you put your feet up on a train or bus, this is how you could get caught

[super jumbe]

THOSE who have a habit of putting their feet up in public transport could end up getting caught by "stealth cameras".

A new survey found that people see passengers who put their feet on seats on trains and buses as "intimidating and confrontational".

Now, one rail network in Merseyside has decided to introduce hidden body cameras on security staff to capture the act and anti-social behaviour - with footage to be used to prosecute people who do it.

"The footage is then used in order to support prosecutions."

If you're caught for the first time, offenders can avoid court by admitting guilt and paying a ?50 admin cost.

Repeated offenders, or those who keep behaving badly, could be fined up to ?350 as well as court costs.

Better keep those feet firmly on the floor next time as it's definitely not worth the risk.

Precisely!

the train company being a private company can only issue an invoice for payment surely? Only government/council can issue fines...

same principle for parking tickets and private parking enforcement

What FFs is a byelaw enforcer is Merseyside in the wild-west now? "The behaviour of passengers is monitored by ?Byelaw Enforcers? (provided by Carlisle Security, contracted by Merseyrail) who patrol the network and take footage using cameras attached to their uniforms of people committing offences, such as feet on seats.

You should only put your feet upon something that you own or have worked hard for. Don't think because you pay ?5 for a train, Bus or Taxi that you own it and this entitles you to abuse it other people have to use it as well. Too many people getting away with the wrong attitude nowadays what ever happened to a good clip round the earhole. Those were the days
