I offer seat for the old ones but no for ladies. As they had special seats in our buses. I will give my seat for a PH person.

But i feel we must vacant seat for ladies also as they get troubled in crowd. :blink:
I am about seventy years old. Hence, I can offer seat only to somebody older than I. Eighty years or above are seldom seen in bus. So, I need not offer seat.
I hope in most of the bus special seats are allocated to ladies and senior citizens. I do offer if there is no seat for physically handicapped, senior citizen and women.

And that's a good habit but i have seen people who sits on the seats reserved for ladies and don't vacant it if some lady is standing. :evil:
Some times i offer and some times myself be tired so then i won't offer
Old people yes I always offer a seat to them and also for ladies carrying small children, disabled people.I had this experience when I got up and offered my seat to a lady with 2 children before she could sit a man came and sat there ...but other people were helpful and intervened and the lady with the children got to sit.You have such selfish and insensitive people in India..
You know SJ- I am follower of old school where values have values. I have a great respect who deserve them therefore never forget to offer my seat to deserving ones but help carry their luggage too.
Sanjeev,
Sometime here people fight for seat too that's ridiculous and finally some other person takes it. :woohoo: It's like cat and monkey story.. :laugh: :woohoo:
I do help if 1 child is standing in front me,I offer him to sit on my legs.
If the seat is vacant besides my seat,then i do offer to sit.
But when it comes to stand and give to other,i don't do it.

Because i travel a long journey of 7 to 8 hours. If i stand and give it to some lady or Men,i have to be stand till the end of my journey. i.e for 7 to 8 hours.

That i can't do it.

The actual reason is- I get up and ask them to sit because I am tall enough to catch the bar and control myself otherwise they will fall on me.

So its better that you don't sit just offer your seat to anyone as you can control by standing there. :laugh:

I am an experience holder, when some of them fell on me I started offering them my seat. :P
I also offer the seat to older people, handicapped people, or pregnant ladies. I have noticed one thing that even though if we offer the seat to other people they would never appreciate it or would hardly say Thank you especially females. Older men would at least say thanks but not women.

All want to live their own life. No one worries about others,in this life.
I better prefer not to help by looking all these greedy things.

I have helped small child,old ladies and sometimes Men.Many times in Train i have helped Old Couples.
I love children,so i like to help them.
If i am so tired then i cannot offer the seat. But when my stop comes then i will make the old women to sit and then i will get down
