They are the scourge of the modern commute: passengers who play music or videos out loud. But amid widespread disapproval from fellow travellers, Transport for London (TfL) is trying to appeal to the better nature of “headphone dodgers” by asking them to “be considerate” and plug in.

The new posters, which will start to appear on the Elizabeth line this week – and on other TfL services, including London buses, in the autumn – remind travellers to use headphones when listening to music or making calls.

Brilliant. Make it national.

My relevant post from about a year ago.

Controversial comment: Bring back the headphone jack.

Ask people to be considerate.

My brother in christ that ship has sailed a long time ago 🤣

The issue is at a much higher level than public transport. The issue can't be tackled at a public transport level.
