Actually I am not sure, it's never been done That would be nice to see (experiment?) though.

It's the same in NZ and Australia: jump a queue and you're likely to get lynched. The great thing about queues is that if they get too long it will generally force action. I'm thinking about traffic, especially. I wonder, if Jakartan drivers suddenly started using the lanes marked on the road, and forming lines at lights, toll gates, etc, the city would probably come to a complete standstill. Wouldn't that force action?

Don't be sorry, I love the queue
I forgot about the Bar Queue, that IS amazing, isn't it. Once I queued for 15 minutes just to get a pint

It's done all over Western Europe and the United States as well . . . I used to not be able to imagine shoving and shouting, and then I went to Italy . . . .
