Wonder if the story is similar in Seattle.
Fares are $3 but pre-covid, Metro made about $1.35 per ride (b/c people have passes, transfers are free).
Using these numbers, a 34% fare evasion rate is costing Metro between ~$50-100M / year, about the revenue of a countywide 0.07-1.5% sales tax.
add a skeleton here at some point
