A $5 peak fare is not a good idea, regardless of how many perks you give. I can drive my car from Far Rockaway to Wakefield and not spend $5 in operating costs. Someone choosing the more virtuous route of dealing with mass transit and helping the environment should not be punished for it, no matter the time of day.

I would agree with others that the way NYC is set up, the only changes to the fare structure should be the ability to make secondary transfers (bus to subway to bus) and maybe a slight discount (such as $2.25) for those who only ride one bus in their trip (without transferring to anything, and maybe only apply that discount off-peak).
