Quote from: Sylvan Loves Buses on July 03, 2022, 11:53:04 AMI just wish we can have a system where only tapping on is required and tapping off is optional.Tapping on is SO last decade. With an account based system using an app, physically tapping on (and off) is unnecessary.

A more reliable system that actually locks onto the stops better too, jumping on a bus constantly only to have to communicate to the drivers that "the machine is red" can quite often be time consuming - plus costly for when the driver changes routes before you get a chance to tag off.
