Hello,

A girl of a friend of mine was at the South Health Campus, and has ID but left her purse at her home. She also has no money. She needs to go to Whitehorn. I looked up the schedules and the BRT #302 goes to the downtown, and stops by the LRT. I told her if she could get there I could drive her to Whitehorn.

Now I know for a fact that in Winnipeg, if you have no fare, and it is late at night (especially if you are female), you can ride for free, and the driver will just telll you to pay the next time you use the Transit system. I believe it is a law in the City of Winnipeg. I was wondering if it is the same in Calgary?

Any help from transit riders, Transit Drivers, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
