This one comes with a complementary chin warmer!

At least they've had the courtesy to prevent their chin from spreading germs  Big Grin

Aha that's my favourite Homer moment ever in the Simpsons
Love being back on public transport and being able to snap sleepy commuters in the wild.

Two more.
*does bestest David Attenborough impression* 'another commuter caught snoozing in the wild. This one is described as a lesser spotted labourer. Normally spotted on building sites or greasy spoon cafes, this one is in the hungover position'
Are you allowed to take pictures/images of sleeping passengers and post them on media without there consent?

As far as I am aware - it isn't against the law to do so.
In fact, there is a well known twitter page who does just that, to an audience far larger than NEB's.

They even got a photo of Ed Milliband asleep on the train once.

It's a public place, and there's no expectation of privacy in a public place.

International 'pretendy' sleepy commuters.
Well it's being a while since we've had one of these and it's certainly not something I get tired of! (pun intended).

I've often done so!

In fact, I'm waiting for one of you lot to spot me so doing, and take a snap of me for posterity in this thread!
The 20:20 X10 has a lot of sleepers on it aswell. Its a very relaxed service, its nice a nice journey.
Clearing out photos from my Google drive and came across this sleepy commuter from the end of April last year.

Neebody ever fell asleep on my buses. If they did they’d be spending a cold night in Byker garage!

He's not snoring yet.

Bit of a creepy thread this. Why do you guys photograph strangers sleeping?

No different to people taking photos of buses imo. Bus drivers get slated for sticking their fingers up but personally I wouldn't want my face photographed by strangers there either. 

Swings and roundabouts. 

Least this has a bit of a joke about it unlike pictures of the millionth Enviro 400 MMC on the 39 in Newcastle.
