Next strategy to beat fare evasion in NYC

The incompetent MTA is working around the clock on fare evasion since lack of enforcement causing almost $1 billion loss every year.

The new one is emergency exit door delays by 15 seconds.

It will not open right away but after 15 seconds.

The pilot program will be set up at locations around NYC and already angering fare beaters who can't afford the $2.90 which is a lot of money unable to make it by earning.

So far the MTA spent $40 million on trying various strategies to install this and that to control fare evasion including new turnstiles yet still not working well.

Despite riders can't afford the fare, the MTA insists the new fare of $3 coming next year is affordable for all. Just save all the pennies and go to the bank for a change.

Also despite wild crimes from assault, robberies to stabbing, the Mayor insists subways are safe for all to travel.

As of December 1st due to holiday time, there were around 600 assaults citywide.
