Tap your damn clipper card
Let me make it simple:
- You tag your card.
- VTA's system counts you as a rider.
- VTA recieves funding based on ridership, not fare income.
- VTA funding keeps the bus/LR lines that you use running.
If you're gonna ride transit, just tag on before boarding. It's the easiest thing in the world. Holding the whole train up at a stop while fare enforcement makes you deboard to tag on is both embarrassing for you and annoying for the rest of us.
We are all adults. This is not difficult.
