Seen from afar: pregnant women in the subway will receive a special "label"
In the Moscow subway began to distribute special badges for pregnant passengers.
Earlier, the sound informants in the cars began to urge passengers to give way to expectant mothers. However, not all pregnant women have a big and noticeable belly, but many are just uncomfortable at the "rush hour" to ask someone to give up their seat.
Metro is considered transport increased dangerand therefore suitable, safe conditions should be created for special categories of passengers.
You can get the badge on the live chat counter. Simply ask him to present a certificate from the doctor there is no need.
The action is more social in nature, since no measures are taken for passengers who refuse to give way to pregnant women, will not be undertaken.
Pregnant women have already appreciated the innovation. They noted that a bright red badge with words of gratitude to those who had ceded was a great way to declare oneself without being humiliated by requests to “get into the position”.
Similar recognition badges are issued in other metros - in London and New York.
