Good karma

I've been given a transit ticket by a stranger and then found a ticket on the machine. I've begun to leave tickets for strangers too. I don't know why more people don't do this.

Great idea

but most people don't do it because it's illegal. They often have transit authority in the area of the ticket machines and have signs posted making you aware that you can be fined. Just be careful when handing them out. You don't want your good karma to land you with a big fine.

May sound nice to strangers but your habit breaks the law, son. It is illegal to pass your fare to other passengers.

are the reason that transit fares are constantly being increased. If everyone pays their share for a ride, then no problem. But there are fare cheaters everywhere, crowding our buses and trains, making it harder on the rest of us. The transit police only catch a small minority of these thieves. We have one of the best transit systems in North America, so don't take it for granted!

...is likely guilty of cadging free rides too. They are also likely the same people who howled in outrage when the sensible among us told TransLink to stick their plan where the sun don't shine earlier this year. You want to use the system and have it be able to afford improvements? PAY to use the system.
