What’s The point?
Twice in a week I have seen them challenge a passenger with no ticket.
First time a bloke got off laughing at them and left the station unchallenged.
Today a woman just started screeching at the ticket inspector when he told her to get off, claiming she was only going two stops.
After a five minute standoff of her screeching and them telling her to get off and the driver announcing that the tram was going nowhere until the passenger concerned got off they gave up and the tram set off with her still on.
Next stop she got off and went on her way.
As well being a waste of time if these inspectors have no teeth, it’s a waste of money paying their wages.
If it’s true that hundreds are not paying we need plod on the trams, not toothless inspectors.
