Is there any information on the rate at which the old-style travel passes are being replaced by the new smart(er) cards?
The old ones are ridiculously open to fraudulent use, especially those without photo ID. Is there a photo on all the new cards, or is it still regarded as too great a hardship for anyone outside 4 or 5 major urban areas to have a photo taken? I would hope that the demise of the old-style passes will produce significant savings.
