I dont understand why people dont get that you stand on the right side and leave the left lane open for people who want to walk through.

I got places to go people!

They do it here in Japan (though it's the left side here), but I've never seen anyone follow that guideline in America.

No one is walking past me on an escalator. It's too unsafe they might knock me down the stairs.

Just be patient and wait

The extra 20 seconds isn't gonna kill you

Edit: I do usually wait on the right side though because I'm right handed

Most of the escalators that I've seen here in California aren't wide enough to allow passing on either side.

People have trouble not leaving their shopping carts in the middle of the aisle, and you expect them not to block the way in escalators?

It's extremely rare that I ever see anyone walk past someone else on an escalator.

Maybe people are just in less of a hurry in Canada. Makes sense considering drug dealers are almost always late. Kinda removes the incentive.

Ill concede to escalators that are obviously too small for anyone to pass (the ones where only one person can stand on step at a time) but the escalator at the end of that video looked plenty big enough for someone to walk by on da left.

Move!

That is really bad because those things have signs saying to stand on the right so people can walk past.

I hate this so fucking much. It happens on regular stairways too. People ate just oblivious to anyone around them apparently.

I've only seen like one escalator here in Hawaii that wasn't wide enough to allow passing. It was oddly slim :<

But yeah, most people rarely stand to the side to allow people who might be in a hurry to pass. That was one of the things I appreciated about Japan. The citizens are very considerate when it comes to others.
