When standing, do you generally hold onto the bars or the loop handles attached to the bars? What did you do this morning if you were on one?

E: Sounds like bars are the popular option here too, for many reasons. Hygiene was a big one I hadn't initially considered. Thanks for answering everyone!

I don't live where the busses are regularly so full you have to stand, so no. I just take a seat and relax.

When I was in NYC, I didn't touch anything on the bus or subway when I used them. I kept my hands in my pocket cuz everything there was icky.
