uh yeah - when did it become a rider's obligation to hold and close the gates for people coming behind them? Shoot, if I open it and someone comes up behind me, I figure I opened it for them, they can close it.

It is not an "obligation", just a courtesy.


My suggestion that you wait holding the gate applied ONLY to the case of a gate with a spring. If you don't hold that gate, then you won't have "opened it for them" as it will have swung shut and latched by the time they get there.
