No smoke/fire are usually caused by garbage and newspapers that people decide to leave on trains instead of throwing them out. Sometimes it is dried leaves too. Not entirely TTCs fault. Tracks don't catch fire by themselves.Just looking at the headings, I would say that
#2 (Fire/Smoke) and #4 (Door Stuck) are the only TTC related delays - and even there it appears some passenger related causes are included in the numbers.
#1 (Ill passenger) and #3 (Disorderly) sound mostly like typical passengers fault.
The bottom 4 sound like passengers who have crossed the legal line.
I'd say 60% sound like a low estimate of delays caused by passengers.
Door stuck cause of garbage is passengers problem too. If TTC enforces not littering and no food/drinks, there wouldn't be as many problem. Also, if they stop putting free newspapers at every station, the track fries would be reduced.
