I keep seeing tourists in Shanghai get their subway tickets stuck because they don't press the green button first.

Yeah, it's a weird design. The slot looks ready to go, but it's basically locked until you hit that button. I don't know why they didn't just make the slot always open. It causes a traffic jam every single time, especially during rush hour. You just see a line of confused people with tickets in their hands. They really need clearer signs or just change the machine.

Oh man, that green button is the secret! You have to press it to activate the slot before you slide your ticket in. I watched a whole family get stuck because they just kept jamming their tickets into the dark slot. The green light above it has to come on first.
