My Grandmother bought me a red ticket without knowing that it is not for me, but I need to use it because I don't have money to catch bart and get to school otherwise, what should I do???Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14337358724874515191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17347513.post-15868943970576224522011-10-23T12:42:21.444-07:002011-10-23T12:42:21.444-07:00There is one senior center near a Bart Station tha...There is one senior center near a Bart Station that is run by the local City that it is located in. You are eligible to join at 55 years old. They will sell you discounted BART tickets if you join their center, which costs $20 per year. If BART only allows seniors of the age of 65 or older to have these tickets, how can this senior center, run by a local city government, be allowed to sell them to members at the age of 55 years?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17347513.post-69420437924682573592010-11-15T12:05:38.954-08:002010-11-15T12:05:38.954-08:00Hello..

If I see you use a discounted ticket, I have no authority to detain you, I have no authority to take the ticket, it is your property, in fact, I have to give it back to you, if you request I return it. <BR/><BR/>If I am lucky, A BART cop may be around and we can cite you. If not I can call it in to dispatch, but who is to say, where you get off at?<BR/><BR/>Many times, I give them the option buy a ticket and I will keep the illegal one or we can have a chat with the police. Depending on the station, that is enough. Such as Walnut Creek, Del Norta, Fruitvale, and many others have substation, so there is a good chance a cop is around.<BR/><BR/>Sure some Station Agents need to look up more, so lets not let them off the hook totally, but in most cases there is little a Station agent can do, without the authority or an officer to back them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
