Fare checkers on BART :)
First time I’ve ever been fare checked on BART!
I’m 100% in favor of enforcement of fare collection and citing fare evaders. I paid with a credit card, so his scanner just checked to see if my card was used at the gate today. Took 2 seconds. Zero fare evaders in this car, btw.
Everyone’s fare was checked, so no random enforcement. Three of them walked the length of the train- Yellow Line from Union City to Richmond.
After having a dude walk car-to-car with a lit blunt earlier this week, I’d love to have more BART police presence. I think one of the keys to having BART be a viable service is that riders feel safe and facilities are cleanish.
