The MetroCard does not give you a paper transfer. The card remembers the transfer just like when you take two local buses. You could pay with your MetroCard and tell te driver you paid by cash and ask for a paper transfer. You use the paper transfer on the next bus and your MetroCard on the third bus. If two hours have not passed since te first bus, your third bus is free. Now if the SBS driver asks to see your receipt and he can tell you did not pay by cash, he doesn't have to give you a paper transfer.The point is you shouldn't have to cheat the system to get one fare. It should be built into the system. Transit policy until 2010 was no service change will cause you to pay an extra fare. That policy needs to be reinstituted. It was quietly taken away without any public hearings and extra fares will become more prominent as more SBS routes are added. |
