"Oh, it's not from electrocution. If you fuck with the tram, the driver will get out and break your spine in half."

I've met some tram drivers who would absolutely chase down and beat the piss out of some pedestrians who don't understand that the rail infrastructure is the rail vehicle's domain, if given the chance.

The name is British, the fine is dollars ($), so could be a lot of places ..

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Wouldn't the fine be in £ at that point?
