There would still need to be some sort of time-out to prevent several people from entering the same station on one card by passing it back over the turnstile. Currently up to four people can enter on one card, but four fares are charged. I guess the last location used could be recorded on the card, and another fare charged if it is used again at the same station within some specified time, like the current 18 minutes.

On buses, the actual run # or something similar, rather than just the line, could be recorded on the card to prevent multiple people from boarding the same bus on one card, but still allow a person to stop off along a route, then board a later bus.
