Re: How do OMNY card users prove they paid SBS fares?

On a regular bus, the back door doesn't open. Enforcement of payment is up to the bus driver. Inspectors never ask riders to show their Metrocard so they can scan it.

What does happen is that when you pay up front, a light facing the back of the bus indicates what type of fare you paid. So if you are a 30 year old and paid with a reduced fare card, an inspector could theoretically ask you to show him your card in order to prove that your reduced fare card has your picture.
