I agree that the city councilman should not have said what he said at the press conference/interview, even if his wife did get a ticket for fair-beating. Just getting and paying your ticket for something that you KNOW is wrong, is really the right thing to do. Then at city council meetings or through letters to the MTA to get the Metro-Card machines fixed quickly - that would have been a better response. Does he really WANT folks jumping the turn-styles, etc. just upon the statement that the machines did not work, or something else was "wrong"? Now his statements could be used by anyone to jump the turn-styles - what kind of example is that? What kind of example is he setting?Plenty of people keep money on their cards - for trips - so that they really do not have to worry about broken Metro-Card machines, or to let a situation develop where they are being ticketed for fare-beating. as a city-councilman he gets paid more than enough money to be prepared to take transit - that is the grown up thing to do.
