I wouldn't compare the danger of life in Wearside to life in South London for a second, but thugs make using public transport around here thoroughly unpleasant (as if the poor service from bus and rail companies weren't bad enough). Even if there is nothing physical, you're always getting chavs whose every other utterance is '****** off' and 'knock you out' and no one dares stand up to them as it gets you nowhere. It actually makes it difficult for me to go out a lot of the time.

Didn't he once accidentally sneer his face off?
