>Looking at weekday use, Sydney Metro had the highest compliance rate at 97%. This was followed by Sydney Ferries (95.9%), all trains (93.6%), Sydney Light Rail (91%) and all buses (89.2%).
That seems like a really high compliance rate, but I don’t really know enough to actually say. Anyone know better?

I have a lot of contempt for those people. Except for the last group.
How can people feel that it’s okay to use a service that belongs to the community without paying your due? That effectively amounts to stealing from the community.
To me, it’s a sign of moral failure that one would take from others without contributing in return.
