Comment on BART’s excursion fare: Agency earns millions from passengers not riding trainsparent

Comments

The 'same station exits' section of that page is fascinating. The great thing is that most people will never need to worry about this, so they discourage fare evasion without inconveniencing honest passengers.

I wonder: if there were better enforcement of fares in San Francisco, would public transport be better? Right now, I almost never use public transport in SF because ~100% of my journeys would take 2x to 3x as long as they do by car. This is very sad for me, having previously lived in two cities with excellent public transport (London and Beijing).
