If for $500 a month I get the same reliability and convenience as MTR, I'm all for it.  
When you adds up  the cost of running a car ( the initial cost, insurance, gas, maintenance, interest on loan) , property tax that goes to translink and government  income tax that goes to translink,  it's probably not far from $500.

the ride free zone is so small that it doesn't really make any difference

想增加 REVENUE 當前急務應該係想辦法阻止D人繼續搭霸王車 。。。點解 TRANSLINK當局唔知架呢﹖

我自從響 DOWNTOWN 返工以黎﹐每次遇見職員查飛﹐無乜邊次唔見有人比人拉﹐證明搭霸王車係一個好嚴重的問題 (但查飛的情況也不常撞見﹐特別是繁忙時間﹐返工 0%﹐放工兩三個月先一次)﹐亦都變成係某D人的 NORM﹐可能覺得無人查飛就無需買飛了。。。以前真的聽過某人同別人講﹕“計落條數﹐就算幾多幾多天被查一次又被罰款﹐計落都還是抵 ”。。。你看這樣的想法怎麼通呢﹖若果家長也教他們的小孩這一套這個社會會變成點呢﹖

TRANSLINK淨係識壓榨那些乖乖買飛搭車的人

check ticket is useless too because nobody will pay the fine!

they probably increase the fare so they have money to build the gates...
