MODERATORS
Escalators are a form of elevator and not stairs. They were put there because stairs would be to long or too steep for stairs and a traditional elevator has less capacity. I also believe that the general recommendation is that you don't walk in elevators because it creates a significant amount of risk of accidents while saving an insignificant amount of time.
Thank you for your great reply, but without providing sources to your claims, I'm going to assume you're simply talking out of your ass and spreading misinformation.

This article makes it clear that standing on both sides of the escalator increases general flow of people though the escalator and when they ask the company managing the new york escalators they say that it is their recommendation that people stand on the escalator because that is safer.
In conclusion, standing on elevators is both faster and safer.
Is there anything else you want to know, you smug cunt?
