They are "looking" into the modern age of fare collection

Why doesn’t TriMet move to an electronic fare system like many other cities have?
Wouldn’t that cut down on fare evasion and on operator-customer conflicts?

There are many benefits—and costs—to electronic fare systems. We gathering information and
looking carefully at all our options.

(unbelievable that they have such a problem getting on board the era of technology for fares, even though Trimet is supposed to be a technological leader in the transit industry)
