Feelings of insecurity arise by an interaction between a human being, a situation and an offender, which is a potential threat. Personnel in public transport are exposed to all kinds of vandalism. This causes negative consequenses, such as the trend to do nothing against it anymore, stress on the working scene and illness. Public transport has to become again a social shelter. Some recommendations are as less as possible undergroud stations or stops, no delay in the timetable, good information about the situation, consequent ticket control, more possibilities for criminal investigation, computer controlled magnetic tickets, controllers in public transport, clean stations, education and enforcement.
