Would you grass them up to the conductor?

If you was on a train and you saw somebody who just got on immediately go into the toilet and remained in there for a while and you suspected this was because they didn't have a valid ticket for their journey, would you report them to the conductor?

I personally wouldn't as I wouldn't want any involvement with anything, but hey ho.

Nah, I'd support the act and hand them a few indigestion pills. We've all been through tough times, sometimes we should help the less fortunate.

It doesn't really bother me, so no. The train companies take enough money from us - I'm not going to object to someone dodging a fair.

Agreed.

Shame really, as the east coast line between Doncaster and York is beyond superb to travel on. :smile:

Everytime I have travelled between Doncaster and York, the ticket inspector NEVER appeared! :zomg:

Also, why the avatar of a snowman holding a bowling ball? :rofl:

They wouldn't be so much of a rip off if people wouldn't dare dodge

No, because you dont stand to gain anything from doing so, and if you run this simulation a 1,000 times say, you are likely to find more often than not you will regret having snitched than not - for a number of potential reasons, but most likely because of retaliation from the offender.
