Thankfully, I made the decision to escape from London to a far more laid back and stress free North Yorkshire about 8 years ago. However upon recent visit to London - I only had to stand at the gateline for no less than 5 minutes at Queen's Park to witness count of about 8 individuals 'bumping' the gate by forcefully pushing themselves against the barriers. This was in the presence of a station assistant whom did little (which is fair enough given this was late evening, and single staffed) to stop the bumpers. The bumpers were also of mixed demographic from old ladies, to young teenagers.
Is TFL in a position to announce that bumping is a serious problem across the network, or was it simply a case of being present at an unfortunate time to witness such a high prevalence of offences?
