Although escalators can bring a lot of convenience to people and make going up and down stairs less strenuous, if the escalators are not used correctly, it will be too late to regret when an accident occurs.
Earlier, a tourist who visited Penang Hill (Bukit Bendera) in Penang stepped on the handrail of the escalator with both feet while going down the stairs. The dangerous behaviour was captured on camera.
According to Oriental Daily, the Penang Hill agency later uploaded the photos to its Facebook page, reminding all visitors to pay attention to safety and advising visitors not to step on the escalator handrails, as this behaviour may not only harm themselves but also bring danger to others.
In addition, Penang Hill also shared other safety tips for using escalators.
