Ticket checks

[Trident 4194]

Do they do ticket checks everyday a couple of stops from colmore row on 74/75/16?

I wouldn't say every day. This is one of the  regular spots for revenue to board buses and check tickets. Others include :

Newtown, Miller Street (inbound)

Hagley Road, Ivy Bush (inbound)

Dudley (island close to where depot was) from Dudley.

I'm sure there are others

Saltley High Street by Saltley Gate in & outbound is another I have seen the men & women in orange vests lurking

Fox & Goose

I would surmise that the team of inspectors go after locations that are often notorious for people with dodgy tickets. I'm thinking its a day at a location, I could be wrong.

I got 'revenued' in Dudley on the 1 yesterday afternoon. At coronation gardens.

They check them in lots of place they got on the 70 in Nechells the other day at about 5PM by saint Matthews Church (towards Chelmsley). On Wednesday.

I love it when revenue inspectors are either at the last stop on Gravelly Hill into City or by Aston Uni heading out of City. They have nowhere to go then!

Well I was 4801 on 16 and it was behind a 74 which was being checked, so it pulled round then the guy in orange vis told him too stop, blocking 2 lanes of traffic

[Stu]

I used to quite frequently see the revenue inspectors on Stratford Road, by ALDI or Ladypool Road. Think they're more often at Camp Hill now, no doubt catching the City Hop abusers.

It is always funny watching people with 'dodgy' tickets trying to scramble off the bus when they spot the hi-vis jackets and police officers lol  :D

I remember once when I was on the A52 heading work (Amazon), I was surprised when revenue inspectors got on just outside Lichfield !

[Lukeee]

Sand Pitts for the 82/87 is another spot and brookvale road for the 7 and outer circle

Is it bad that I gave a shi*load of free tickets to people because I knew the inspectors were down the road? Gave a group of 5 teenagers a group daysaver too lmao.

Lmao I never stopped for the revenue a couple times too, they take too long and I was running late.

Actually that is pretty bad and those actions make you no better than the people without tickets and fake ticket, out of date tickets etc. I blame you for my fare going up every year.

Well said.

Thats shocking! There is a reason we have bus fares, they aren't optional.
