People who inadvertently delay others because they are not ready for paying, showing something, - or some other in-line action exist everywhere, although to be fair to them it is not always their fault that they aren't the fastest through the gate. At the other extreme there are those who think that their sense of urgency trumps all others' issues and when it doesn't go just as they want it to are just looking to blame another for their frustration. Public transport is 'for the public' and the public come in many flavours, - those that can't (or won't) accept that are doomed to a life of frustration and irritation.
In a transport context another (almost) mild amusement to me is at airports where there are travelators to mitigate the long walks between circulation areas. Many's the time when I've had heavy long-distance baggage when a chance to travel 100m just standing rather than trudging along a long corridor. Then about a quarter of the way down the travolator, there's an impatient person tutting and breathing heavily because they can't spring down the narrow footway owing to 'obstructions' - aka passengers who have allowed sufficient time to get 30 seconds of rest whilst still moving towards their destiunation.
The form of ticketing on railways used where there is a choice is there for each passenger to choose. Just as some think that their phone based world is the answer to everything, there are many more who regard loading a legally required permit to travel on a multi-role electronic device as more trouble than it is worth - as many in the Disputes & Prosecutions forum find to their cost. The simple fact is that paper tickets work, are relatively easy to secure from theft or just plain carelessness, and ultimately don't refuse to verify their validity beyond the holder's control.
Paper, the single most successful IT invention ever, - created by the Chinese just 1900 years ago and still going strong.
