The event passed
In the video, we see the male passenger being told at the security check that self-heating rice cannot be brought on the train. He was so angry that he threw two boxes of self-heating rice on the ground and left the security area in anger. 12306 then responded that self-heating rice was dangerous and could not be taken on the train. The response immediately sparked a heated debate online, with debate about the reasonableness and necessity of the ban.
Follow-up processing
Afterwards, the editor checked the relevant information and found that self-heating rice does have potential safety hazards. The heating pack contains aluminum powder and quicklime, which can cause an explosion when exposed to water. While some train stations allow belts, some prohibit them, and there are real regional differences.
Netizen evaluation
After the video was exposed, netizens expressed their opinions one after another. Some people questioned the motives of the railway authorities, arguing that it was to protect the sale of food on the train: "Self-heating rice can be sold on the train, but passengers can't bring it, is it to make money?" Some netizens think that this is an "overlord clause", which feels very unfair.
However, there are many netizens who support the ban, believing that this is for the safety of passengers: "Self-heating rice is really dangerous, I have personally experienced an explosion, it is really scary." Someone else shared their own experiences: "I've brought self-heating rice at other train stations, why can't I do it here?" ”
Reflection and empathy
This incident has brought us more attention to the safety of self-heating rice. Since there is a risk of explosion, it is forbidden to carry it on the train for the sake of everyone's safety. However, the railway authorities should be more transparent and consistent in enforcing the ban, so that passengers have clear expectations. For passengers, it is important to know the rules of what to bring before traveling, and bring some other food, after all, safety comes first.
The online pictures have nothing to do with the text
The railway sector also needs to do a better job of advocacy and interpretation to reduce unnecessary conflicts and misunderstandings. At the same time, regulations should be set and implemented as humanely as possible, so that passengers feel cared for, rather than forcefully restricted.
The incident quickly fermented on social media and caused widespread discussion. This was reported by several media outlets, highlighting the potential dangers of self-heating rice and calling on the public to comply with the regulations. At the same time, some non-profit organizations have also put forward suggestions that they hope that the railway authorities will be more humane in formulating and implementing regulations to avoid similar conflicts.
Finally, I would like to say that safety is the most important thing during the journey. Since self-heating rice is a safety hazard, you may wish to choose other safer foods. What do you think about this? Feel free to leave a message in the comment area to share your views.
