Transperth - Smart Rider

here is juz some information about the Smart Rider..

as i know there was once, Jaclyn forgotten to tag off from the bus.. n she doesn't know what to do.. n she tried to ask the next bus whether she can tag on and tag off or not.. but the bus driver said cannot..

the correct answer is actually CAN!!!

as i read abit to know more bout Smart Rider.. there's this 15 min rule as i believe most of us know where we transfer from one place to another within 15mins... there's no charge..

whereas there's another called the 60 min rule.. which if u fail to tag off.. it will continue to charge til the next tag on..

'an exception to the default fare rule will aply if the next tag on occurs within 60 mins of the previous tag on.
In this case, the next tag on location will instead be processed as the incomplete tag off location.
This ensures that passengers are charged the relevant fare rather than the penalty fare, in the event of unintentional failure to tag off whilst transferring from one service to another.
This rule only applies when tag on occurred onboard a bus.'

so hope this info helps u all.. hehe.. but the most important is remember to TAG OFF!!!
