If the unlimited Metrocard is the proof of payment, there's no way a second person could be riding on the same pass. So there'd be no need for the 18-minute lockout.Ridership tracking is secondary to providing efficient service. And there are plenty of ways to track ridership without making people swipe for every trip. How about this: You would only have to swipe an unlimited Metrocard at an SBS machine once. You'd get an SBS receipt valid for the whole month/week. You'd have to show both to the inspector, who would match the serial number. They could make the serial number bigger on the card to make this easier. |
