A Phlegm-Free Zone

While riding the bus home the other night, I read a sign that is stuck prominently where everyone can see it:

Please
No Littering
No Smoking
No Spitting
No Radio Playing

No spitting? That’s right. Bus spitting is apparently such a problem that it requires special mention on MTA signage. Granted, it’s not the scourge of public transportation that littering and smoking are, but it’s a bigger issue than radio playing.

Hey, MTA: The 1970s called. They want their sign back.
