Singapore Mandates Rigorous Physical Fitness Test Before Using Reserved MRT Seats

The Land Transport Authority (LTA) has announced a radical new initiative to combat the scourge of ‘seat hogs’ on public transport. Effective immediately, all reserved seats—formerly reserved for the elderly, pregnant, or infirm—will now be strictly enforced by newly trained, drone-mounted enforcement officers, nicknamed 'Auntie-Bouncers.'

"If you are under 65, you better look sprightly, or you confirm kena fine," stated an LTA spokesperson, whose face was obscured by a privacy filter. "We noticed the public lacked the moral fibre to vacate seats, so we've outsourced moral fibre to AI."

Witnesses reported immediate chaos during trials. “I just lean for a second, then the drone zoom-in! So fast, like police car light flash,” complained one commuter, Mr. Tan. Another added, “My back pain is real, but the drone say my posture too good. *Aiyo, so sian!*” The new policy aims to reduce commuter empathy by 80%.
