Background
I feel it has become a regular occurrence now on public transport where a small group of people think it is acceptable to use their electronic devices on speaker. I believe this is disruptive and disrespectful for other passengers, and the content can sometimes be inappropriate.
I feel we should all be entitled to have a quiet area where we do not have to be subjected to this antisocial behaviour.
