Came across this today. (It's basically Monash's fault.)

"valid ticket " also applies to holding a myki concession and concession card at the same time?

Don't do that - if you get caught that's $212 slapped on you. It's happened to me before, it wasn't pretty.

Ahahaha they want guns? Didn't they receive the message when they all failed the Victoria Police entrance examination?

"Ms Grigorovitch said ticket inspectors doled out as many as 10 fines a day to fare evaders."

Wow. That's a very low figure. I guess it would be higher if they actually did their job. It's a little delusional that ticket inspectors believe anyone thinks ticket inspectors have money...or a savings account...or own property/assets.

And no, I've never been fined. I'm just sick of Melbourne Central ticket inspectors always stopping me for a concession card and quickly ignoring the taller, stronger men without tickets who pass through the gates directly tailing me. I guess it's easier to knee the throats of calm, placid students http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/melbourne-tram-inspectors-caught-restraining-fare-evader/story-fni0fit3-1226754450363 than approach someone their own size.

It's fair enough that they don't want to carry shitloads of money around. The guns thing is just grandstanding by the union, probably. (And quite a creative step at that.) My experience with them has always been positive - sure, there are some bad nuts that get on the news, but otherwise they just operate according to instructions given to them. It's unfortunate that they're told to go after students without concession cards, and I definitely know that it's really fucking annoying, but I don't think it's their fault.

shifting of enforcement costs, though it'd probably  be cheaper than chasing up dropkicks anyway

It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.

I'm curious to know how they'll deal with people who have a myki but haven't touched it on?

Like do they have a portable device that checks this?
