The only thing is this is kind of an imaginary number in terms of real money. No fare system on earth can prevent 100% evasion, and we cannot discount the cost of preventing it. We would need NYPD on every single bus in Queens basically lol. I hate fare evasion but I don't see a cost effective way at eliminating it. I am all for more attempts though, whether better spot enforcement and higher fines, but we should note we likely will never fully capitalize on the lost fares
