Not as annoying as people getting through on your ticket by following closely behind. I'm trying to perfect the art of leaving it till the last possible moment before going through the barriers and them closing. Unfortunately my laptop bag makes this harder. Most auto barriers tend to have a sensor on the "other" side and will stay open for a while until one person (theoretically) has passed through. I have very often done the following without any problem getting through... 1) Put down coffee 2) Insert ticket 3) Remove ticket 4) Return ticket to wallet 5) Return wallet to pocket 6) Pick up coffee 7) Pass through barrier ....obviously not when the station is busy, mind!
