सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

In public transport, it is common to say 'Sustokite stotelėje' even if it's a scheduled stop, just to be sure the driver sees you. The concept of 'standing' (stoti) is linked to the Baltic Way protest. Stopping is seen as a powerful, deliberate act. Using the informal 'Sustok' with an elderly person is considered very disrespectful in Lithuanian culture. In Vilnius, 'Sustokite' is often used when using ride-sharing apps like Bolt if the GPS is slightly off.
