I would like to make a suggestion to the Maryland Transit Administration in light of the agency's recent report on a possible fare increase ("MTA says fares may increase 65 cents," Dec. 20).
My husband and I ride the light rail from Timonium frequently. We purchase tickets, but I can't tell you the large number of people we see ride for free. They never buy a ticket.
Once or twice I have been on the train when someone comes and verifies if we have purchased a fare, but not often. Maybe the MTA should have someone to check light rail passengers more frequently and then the rest of the honest citizens would not have to pay a higher fare.
