Trimet actually takes responsibility for its broken ticket machines?

Trimet uses Gestapo techniques for fare inspection

This is a first. A Trimet controller actually informing a Trimet supervisor that they will not be undertaking the Gestapo like fare inspections while the system is malfunctioning. In the past they have put 100% of the responsibility for fares on its riders so I view this a a 'breakthrough'!
 A possible enlightenment of an otherwise selfish and uncaring institution that usually considers its riders fair prey for its fare Nazi's under all  circumstances!
