New text alert system launches in ‘pathetic effort’ to stop anti social behaviour on DART services




Anti social behaviour has been rampant over the past number of years with teenage thugs running riot in stations and on carriages.

The behaviour has seen teenage thugs harassing passengers, fighting each other, attacking passengers, smashing carriages and graffiti amongst other things.

In what many believe to be an absolutely ‘pathetic’ attempt at stopping such behaviour, a text alert service has been launched to alert authorities that something is happening.

People are asked to text 51444 following by train and their location with what’s happening. That’s it, forget about trying to get to the root of the problem, all you can do is send a text!
