What is forbidden in the subway? The document stipulates why the subway is not allowed to take pictures.

In some sensitive areas such as secrets and security, you can see these four words: No taking pictures. There is no doubt that if you see this sign, you will strictly abide by it and will not take pictures. But if this sign appears on the subway, everyone may not necessarily follow it.

It is reported that a number of "No" signs were posted in Ningbo subway this past weekend. Among them, a sign "No Photographing" appeared, which caused controversy and became a hot spot on the Internet for a while. In this case, some people say that people come and go in the subway station, standing in the same place to take pictures, there are security risks. Some people say that the subway is not a sensitive area, so why not take pictures?

In response to this controversy, Ningbo Metro Company said that the subway is a civil air defense project, and the "no filming" is for the sake of confidentiality. In addition, the subway station is crowded with people, so there may be security risks in taking pictures. However, we found that yesterday afternoon, the controversial "No Shooting" sign had been quietly evacuated from Ningbo subway stations. What do you think of this incident?

Online reaction:

There are more voices of opposition than supporters.

This incident was first posted by enthusiastic netizens on the local Tianyi Forum in Ningbo, which quickly attracted onlookers with more than 1, hits. Most of the people who replied to the thread expressed disapproval.

Netizen "Little Fox" said: Although it is understandable that it is not suitable to take pictures in the subway under the condition of large passenger flow, I hope to publicize the reasons why I can't take pictures.

Netizen "riyaoo" said: After consulting the Measures for the Administration of Ningbo Rail Transit Operation and the Code for Passengers of Ningbo Rail Transit, there was no content prohibiting taking photos, but only one article prohibiting "other behaviors that affect the order of rail transit, the appearance and environmental sanitation of public places". But I don't think that taking pictures under normal circumstances will have any impact on public order.

Netizen "King of Grasshoppers" said: The subway is a public occasion, and citizens have the right to take photos. Maybe we can record a bad phenomenon and play a certain supervisory role.

the netizen "Bao Bao Xiong" said: If someone else's photos are taken and posted on the Internet, which will have a bad influence on the people being photographed, you can consider resolving the dispute through civil litigation, but it is forbidden to take photos in the subway. This is "one size fits all" and does not agree.

However, some netizens said that it is reasonable to ban filming, and it is not necessary to have legal provisions for everything. "We should respect other people's industry traditions and habits."

Subway photographers:

It's not good to show the positive image of the subway

At about 1 pm yesterday, reporters from qianjiang evening news interviewed 5 citizens at Fuming Road, Sakura Park, Dongmenkou, Gulou and other stations of Ningbo Metro Line 1, and Kongpu and Ningbo University of Line 2, among which 41 people clearly expressed their opposition to "no photographing" in subway stations.

Chen Xiaowen is the sales manager of a foreign trade company in Ningbo Tianyi Business Circle. She is also a photographer. Recently, many of Chen Xiaowen's photographs are related to Ningbo subway, and she also likes to shoot such subjects. Chen Xiaowen believes that as long as it does not affect the normal operation of the subway, it should be allowed to shoot freely.

"The works I shot on the subway show the beautiful and harmonious side of Ningbo subway, and they are spread through various channels. This is also a display of the beautiful image of Ningbo subway. Why not?" Chen Xiaowen, like most people, opposes the prohibition of taking pictures in the subway. She suggested that the subway department should take corresponding measures to encourage everyone to shoot and publicize the Ningbo subway on the premise of avoiding the rush hour.

Of the 5 citizens interviewed at random, 8 said it doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't affect their travel, it doesn't matter if they can't stop filming. One of the citizens, who asked not to be named, said that he supported the ban on taking pictures. He said that he was very concerned about appearing in the lens of strangers. There were so many people in the subway that he didn't know when he was taken away by others.

On March 16th this year, Beijing Metro conducted a similar survey, and the results showed that most citizens thought that they could shoot freely without affecting the safety of the subway. It has also been pointed out that the prohibition of taking pictures has no legal basis and is unreasonable, which is an obvious presumption of guilt.

Ningbo Metro Response:

The subway is a civil air defense project, and it is leak-proof

The online response quickly attracted the attention of Ningbo Rail Transit Group Co., Ltd.

In this regard, Ningbo Metro Operation Branch responded to the questions of netizens for the first time. Considering that the subway has the function of civil air defense engineering, it is forbidden to shoot because of the need for confidentiality, which is also the practice of domestic subways. At the same time, the subway station belongs to a crowded area, and taking photos may affect the order of passengers, causing passenger flow to gather, which has potential safety hazards. Referring to the practice of subways in other cities in China, taking photos is not allowed in Ningbo subway station.

as for anyone taking pictures, how to discourage them? Whether there are penalties for dissuasion is invalid, etc., Ningbo Metro did not respond.

Domestic situation:

There are different ways to ban filming in major cities.

At present, there are precedents in Nanjing and other cities that prohibit taking pictures in the subway in China. As early as 212, Nanjing Metro exposed the news that passengers were forbidden to take photos in subway stations on the grounds of "keeping civil air defense facilities confidential", which also caused heated discussion at that time. At that time, the Nanjing Metro responded that Nanjing did have regulations prohibiting taking photos in the subway. Apart from confidentiality requirements, camera flashes may interfere with the observation of signal lights by train drivers entering the station, which is the main starting point. However, in the face of controversy, Nanjing Metro also said: "Passengers are allowed to take photos with their mobile phones as appropriate without affecting the operation of the subway and the passage of others, but cameras are absolutely forbidden."

In Shenzhen, Metro Group said that commercial activities are not allowed to take photos in subway stations, but it is conditionally allowed for ordinary citizens to take photos. Guangzhou Metro Company has also told the media that citizens can basically take photos at will without involving commercial nature. The operator of Shanghai Rail Transit said that the station of rail transit is a public area, and there is no relevant regulation prohibiting passengers from taking pictures, and it will not be deliberately prohibited.

In Hong Kong, there are regulations that prohibit the use of any recording, video recording or filming equipment for interviews, filming or making films without the written consent of the MTRC. In the United States, the New York Transportation Authority has similar regulations. For example, taking photos in the subway in new york is generally not allowed. If this happens, the police will usually come forward to stop or delete the photos just taken.

The latest news:

The "No Photographing" sign has been quietly removed

During the interview yesterday afternoon, the reporter found that the controversial "No Photographing" sign had been quietly removed at many stations such as Ningbo Metro Line 1 and Line 2.

There are many "no signs" in the whole subway station, such as "No inflammable and explosive dangerous goods, no kindling, no toxic substances, no weapons, no begging, no pets, no balloons, no smoking and no stalls" at the entrance of the station. There is a "no handcart" at the elevator entrance; On the side of the car door, there is "Don't rely on it, don't grab it, don't hold the door"; In the middle of the two carriages, there is "No pulling, be careful to pinch your hands"; There are signs such as "No Eating, No Littering" in the carriage. However, the "No Photographing" sign that appeared before has disappeared.

In the station, several security and customer service staff are on duty. At this time, the flow of people is not large, and pedestrians are in a hurry.

The reporter took out his mobile phone and took some photos without affecting others, but no staff came to stop him.

Ningbo Metro has not responded to why the sign was removed.

things prohibited in the subway and regulations

anti-wolf spray is prohibited from entering the subway. Recently, the sales of "anti-wolf tools" have risen due to the attack on female guests in the hotel, and some online stores even sold out of wolf spray for a time. The reporter found that more than half of these so-called "safety products" could not enter the subway. Recently, the number of passengers carrying it on the subway has soared, but many passengers don't know it, and even there have been several incidents of "big trouble" in the Beijing subway because of this spray. So, what are the forbidden items in the subway?

In fact, every spring and summer, the probability of station security inspectors detecting such contraband will increase by about 2%. Beijing Metro reminds that flammable and explosive daily necessities such as toilet water, nail polish remover, hair gel and mousse are also prohibited. Passengers should accept and cooperate with the safety inspection when entering the station. If it is found that the prohibited items stipulated by laws and regulations are illegally carried, the safety inspectors shall dispose of them in accordance with the regulations and promptly report them to the public security organs for handling according to law.

anti-wolf spray is forbidden to enter the subway at about 14: 37 on April 1th. At the entrance A of Huayuanqiao Station in Chegongzhuang Station of Metro Line 6, a female passenger was found to have a can of police anti-wolf spray with her when she entered the station, and the security inspector immediately handed it over to the police for handling.

among the "anti-wolf tools", the most famous one is the anti-wolf spray, and the number of passengers carrying it on the subway has soared recently. He Shuo, the deputy head of changping station Station District of Metro Line 15, said that 71 anti-wolf sprays have been investigated and dealt with in four stations under the jurisdiction of the station district since it was opened at the end of the year. The relevant person in charge of Chegongzhuang Station on Line 6 said: "Recently, the number of anti-wolf sprays stopped by security inspection has obviously increased, and some of them are printed with police badges. Such items need to be turned over to public security personnel for handling."

This kind of spray has also "made a scene" in Beijing subway several times. Dongzhimen Station of Metro Line 2 has therefore staged a farce. At that time, a female passenger was found to have carried "anti-wolf spray" when she entered the station for security check. When the security inspector dissuaded him from leaving and informed the police, the passengers were emotional and immediately picked up the spray and sprayed it on the explosion-proof blanket. The pungent smell spread instantly, and the surrounding passengers coughed up one after another, and some even had symptoms such as tears, difficulty breathing and vomiting.

Anti-wolf spray is forbidden to enter some subway stations to provide temporary storage service

According to the subway department, anti-wolf spray is also called riot spray, and its main raw material is highly irritating liquid such as capsaicin, which can temporarily make gangsters lose their eyesight, unable to open their eyes, accompanied by strong cough and burning pain in the upper respiratory tract. This is a clear contraband, and it is forbidden to bring it into the station.

"The general solution is to persuade people to leave, and most passengers will cooperate." He Shuo suggested that passengers can contact the platform staff at the first time if they are infringed by criminals during the ride.

The reporter found that some stations have also introduced storage services on the premise of ensuring the safety of goods. For example, four stations under the jurisdiction of changping station District can be stored for one day; Chegongzhuang Station will agree with the passengers on the storage time, and the storage time will not exceed 3 days at most.

the alarm against the wolf spray from entering the subway is not a "persuasion product"

Recently, the Lama Temple station area of Line 2 organized the station security inspectors to study and drill to quickly identify contraband such as the wolf spray. A front-line security inspector introduced that items such as anti-wolf rings have been discovered recently. "There is a top on the ring, which is made of metal. We will basically persuade the passengers to retreat. If it is really not possible, let the passengers take it off and put it in the bag. Don't accidentally hurt other passengers. "

According to the subway, except for the alarm, most so-called "safety products" can't be brought into the subway, especially some spray and fire-breathing devices. Although there is no clear "no-walking" regulation for pens with similar "wolf-proof rings" and tungsten-gold attack heads recently, if security inspectors find that they will affect the safety of other passengers, they will also be "yellow-flagged".

A front-line station attendant said that although the subway security inspection has been implemented for many years, some passengers are still confused about the types and contents of prohibited articles. Items that are easy to break the ban in summer include toilet water and nail polish remover. Lighters, liquor, matches and other items have a clear carrying quantity and cannot be exceeded.

wolf spray is prohibited from entering the subway. according to the relevant person in charge of the bus corps of the municipal public security bureau, the newly published catalogue not only clarifies the prohibited items stipulated in the past, but also includes some other items that are not prohibited by laws and regulations, but have certain lethality and danger, which may endanger the safety of the public and the safety of operation, such as knives, hammers, and artistic knives. In addition, the prohibition of belts is also imposed on more than 2, ml (inclusive) liquor, more than 5 lighters, 1 boxes or more than 2 matches, and other daily necessities (such as toilet water, nail polish remover, hair gel, mousse, etc.) with signs or tips of inflammable and explosive dangerous chemicals on their packages.
