Controversy Due to the long length of line 11 and high passenger volumes, it is common for line 11 passengers to be forced to stand on the train for their entire trip. In response to this, in 2014, some passengers who travelled long distances between the urban area and the suburban areas of Jiading or Sanlin who could not bear standing for a long time started bringing their own folding seats into the carriages. Shanghai Metro said there is a safety hazard when sitting on personal benches. In the following years, the official Weibo of Shanghai Metro also reminded passengers of the phenomenon of "bench tribe" to be safe and civilized. Beginning in 2019, Line 11 posted relevant reminders in the carriages, and reminded passengers not to use their own benches in the carriages through the carriage broadcast.Shanghai line 11 warns the "bench family" for the first time: Do not use your own small bench in the carriage.
