San Diego’s trolley is the same way - weak fare enforcement. The end result is people carrying on their carts full of recycling and pushing off other riders back into their cars. The trolley itself and the routes seem well intentioned and well planned. The carriages seem modern and otherwise comfortable. Many apartment buildings have been put up by the stations. Why couldn’t they just spend a little more for validated entry to keep the system working as it was designed?
- letitbeirie 5y agoThe honor system isn't the problem, it's the total lack of any effective enforcement of it. In other cities (and countries) you can be fined and/or detained for skipping your fare; in Seattle (according to the article at least) the situation seems to be more "pay your fare or I will chastise you a second time."
- TAKEMYMONEY 5y agoIn Seattle you are fined $50 the third time, $75 the fourth, $124 after that. > according to the article Yep, they never mention it. Odd omission eh?
