Also, I would hope you have a stronger regard for morals and better civic pride. Abusing the honor system commands low respect.
During rush hour when trains are packed. In three years commuting I've only been on the train twice when officers checked fares and even then that was off-peak and I wasn't even commuting. That 'Fat ticket' has to be more than $3000 to provide financial incentive to pay.

I agree with the moral arguement and that's why I pay everyday. My point was there's economic incentive to avoid paying and increased fees will also increase this avoidance.
