In case of break down what happens?
This is the case of central computer system and not individual bus system
When u board a bus, u tapped for the deduction of maximum fare for the whole bus journey meaning from one interchange to another interchange, for feeder bus it is the same!
When u wanna alight, u tapped, this time itÂ’s the exit system, to return u the fare that is not complete by ur journey taken by you!
First itÂ’s the entrance system !
When u go down, itÂ’s the exit system!
When u first board and tapped, u make a mark in the entrances system with ur card number or account or any code number which identify ur Easylink card,
Just like an IC number
So the central computer will check for an entrance made by you when u board and therefore, with an entrance, u will got an exit too, right? Unless, u jump out of the window or disappear into thin air?
In case of breakdown! How?
U already tapped first time later on u got chased out by the driver bcos of breakdown,
he will fix aFree transfer bus to continue ur journey from the breakldown point,
the transfer bus is free of course bcos they gotta compensate YOU!
Later, u just board the free transfer bus without tapping on the entrance of the transfer bcos it a compensation what!
A free transfer to substitute the break down! Why do you have to tap at the entrance again?
Last time,
U paid coins , breakdown, transfer bus here, why do you bother to pay again?
Before the breakdown ,u had already deducted the maximum fare
Unless u have reached ur destination at the breakdown point then u just have to tapped the exit mode
To return u the fare that u donÂ’t travel at all!
So on the transfer bus to contiue the rest of the untravelled journey , it still the same! U alight , tap exit and got down!
So this is the case of central computer system and not individual,
they recognise u by the central computer and not individual! Ur code number,
different card, different code to recognise the user that is YOU!
The information on boarding and dis-boarding maybe stored inside the easylink card, magnetise?
Could be stored in the central computer too! I dunno, I donÂ’t invent that! Ask the easylink computer programmers
Impressive!~~~~
