How are they planning to account for the all-day ticket? Or is that being scrapped so now you have to pay twice? brows.gif

All-day ticket has been scrapped in 2009.

oh wai-

does this also means that we can't use touch n go?
*
Any Touch n Go card can be used.

This is because the system is based on Touch n Go card.

Oh, really? Shows how long it has been since I actually used the bus twice in a day.

Yes, in 2009, they moved to zone-based fare.

This year, Touch n Go + GPS technology.

it is still based on tng.

i think its leceh, especially for ppl who dont use this daily. have to buy the minimum of rm5 just to use rm1
*
In longer term, I think they are going to scrap the paper ticket.

Yes.

QUOTE(SilentSerpent @ Apr 7 2011, 06:53 PM)
yeah, right now they still have paper tickets and still accept the rm1. later they wont rite?
btw, if u use the card rite now, got discount 20% kan?
*
In future, they may not.

If you use the card, there is discount at the moment.

I would say this will save the cost in the long run.

You keep Touch n Go for much longer than having paper ticket which is being disposed by the end of your trip.

if they implement this, then I believe everyone will definitely keep a T&G card in their wallet, just like me in SG, even i ride my bike, i will always keep a Nets Cash card in my wallet, who knows i wanted to park and ride on that day, coz use EZlink or Nets will get rebate in SG. they should implement this system in MY also.
*
The issue of rebate was mentioned in the NKRA in comparison to other cards such as Ezlink, Taipei card and London Oyster card.

Not sure what is the current status.

back then they even have the machine that sell TnG card in the bus, i was caught offguard not noticing the date they stop accepting cash and have to spend rm10 for a new card, twice actualy as i forgot to bring the TnG card once..dammnnnnn
*
The current implementation includes onboard GPS system for exact fare calculation.

why cant they just install redio wave transmitter near every station for every bus to know where the fucuk they are at... GPS is so unreliable especially in areas where there are trees and what not.
*
Radio wave transmitter is poor choice (not even possible) to locate hundreds of buses.

It has interference and less accurate compared to GPS.

Tracking bus using GPS is a proven method.

during traffic jam, if the driver decided to take detour will be system charge extra?

Very very unlikely.

I never seen driver take detour before, and the calculation based on zones.
