Do you think Trimet bus drivers will ever get a clue?

Bus drivers are punching the “unpaid button” on their fare boxes more often, partly to avoid taking a punch themselves.
The union representing bus drivers estimates drivers hit the button on the fare console 2.5 million times last year as cheats boarded Coast Mountain buses — with the majority boarding in Vancouver, where there’s the largest transit-using population. Neighbouring suburbs recorded between 200,000 and 400,000 fare cheats in 2011.
