The ticket inspectors are now either under PTC(public transport
council) or LTA, and their tag change liao, not company de, now
wear white shirt and lanyard with a card inside.
I tio Mr Phillip one week ago on SBS9554? on svc 8, then got a
lot of ppl kenna 20 dollar fine, at the back one big group of
teenagers evade fare, bus at interchange stilll fin-ing them, and I
was like LOL? Inspectors so good, but so bad.....
I saw how they do the fin-ing:
1)tell them they evade fare, ask them pay 20 dollars
2)inspector go downstair dunno get what tix
3)inspector comes back, take the fine, and give change if
necessary
4)issue receipt
END
the inspectors are still under their own companies, but are
authorized by PTC as agents under the PTC Act to collect fine for
fare evasion.
you won't see inspectors checking on a SBST bus, then goes on to
check a SMRT bus, or vice versa.
