Rode Jeepney after four months

Philippines
July 11, 2020 3:44am CST
The public transport were re instated during the month of June. Even though they already put some plastic walls on each passengers side to prevent contact I still wouldn't ride it. It was stated recently that passengers pay first before going inside the jeep. Nope that didn't happen, I still had to pay the driver by giving it to his hand personally and also reaching out other passenger's pay at the back... Anyways I did that because there was no trycicle near my brother's house, had to walk and find a public transport. With them, they can only take one passenger at a time. Some people believed this was good to prevent close pickpocketting.

Hello @just4him Yes they are, in hopes to prevent it from getting physical contact.

I don't believe stealing is a livelihood @Janet357 unless you live day to day to eat/..

@Letranknight2015 You said they can only take one passenger at a time, so. does that mean that they will pass people up if there is already someone on it? It also does not sound safe to me, but, if you have no other choice then that is it.

It would be very scary to be so close to other people.

Good to know that public transport begins to operate, but even they put plastic walls between each passengers if giving fare is hand to hand ,still risky. Need sanitizer from time to time.
