15% avoid payment on public transportation, estimate: 400 million shekel damage

|
The Ministry of Transportation estimates that the scope of this phenomenon indicates an average validation evasion rate of about 15%, mainly on urban routes, student and soldier lines. The estimated cost to the economy is approximately 400 million shekels per year. The evasion method is simple: passengers scan the barcode in the app when boarding the bus but don't confirm the payment. If an inspector boards, they complete the transaction in real time and avoid a fine of only 100 to 180 shekels.
