Another man boards the train with me. As I'm paying, we start to roll out of the station. When he swipes his card, a buzzer sounds indicating that its stored value is less than the fare due.
"I don't have any money," he says to the conductor. "Would you please let me slip by just this one time?"
The train operator apologizes and informs the man that he will have to get off the train at the next stop. The man offers no further plea or excuse. He exits the train several stops before he intended to.
