What annoys you most while traveling in China?

Seneca (expat in China)

What annoys me - not enough to devote a thread to complain about it - is that when travelling at night in China I cannot read a book, magazine, or newspaper because there is no light in public buses and trains.

Bus drivers would tell me the light is broken. Or the bright light inside the bus would interfere with driving safety; even reading lamps mounted above the heads of passengers won't get turned on. Chinese night trains are even worse. In a hard-sleeper compartment, the light goes out at around 10 p.m.
