The tram is a part of the daily life of many Montpellier residents. And like all public transportation, it comes with its fair share of constraints, so much so that taking the tram could, unexpectedly, become a real sport. Exercise in patience and nerves, anyway, that's for sure. Here are 25 ultra annoying things when you take the tram in Montpellier. Don't lie, we all experienced it.

1. Watching the tram leave right in front of you... 2. While the next one is in ten minutes 3. Taking line 1 around Paul-Valéry or the university of sciences between 5pm and 8pm 4. The people who don't let you out of the damn tram by standing in front of the door 5. The students who take the tram to a nightclub starting from 10pm 6. That jerk who stretches his feet on the seat in front 7. When the tram is crowded, so you wait for the next one... but it's the same thing 8. The ticket inspectors (of course), especially those who are there from 6am or show up at midnight 9. When you live in Saint-Jean de Védas, Pérols and co (especially on Sundays) 10. When the tram is crowded.- Feeling all excited and people refuse to move to let you in

11. The tram that runs once every ten Saturdays

12. That guy who sees the tram as an alternative meeting place and won't leave you alone until he gets your number

13. The babies who cry (and never stop)

14. Having to walk back to Saint-Eloi at 3am because there are no trams after 1am

15. The men who remind us every day that manspreading exists

16. That random person who talks on their phone as if they were at home

17. Never knowing which way to go between Garcia Lorca A or B

18. Being in the clouds and missing your stop 19. Those people who sit by the aisle and 'block' the seat by the window... 20. Even putting their bag on the seat (you're no better: that's what we're trying to make you understand) 21. Taking the tram during the FISE (if you haven't tried it yet... you'll see) 22. Taking the tram during the summer in general 23. Meeting someone you vaguely know and being forced to make conversation 24. Having to wait until you get to Gare Saint-Roch and/or Comédie for the tram to finally empty out 25. Kids who take the seats when they still have energy, well... don't they?You know what, next time, you'll take the bike.
