[quote=Anonymous]We recently moved back to Arlington after 15 years away from the DMV. My 18YO son got home from visiting friends in DC one day last week and said, 'I didn't realize that the buses are free!'. I told him that to my knowledge they are not, but he said that he got on and there wasn't anything indicating that he needed to pay. I was super confused and wondered if maybe the bus driver had assumed that my son was a student, with free Metro access (he is not as he goes to college out of state). I was used to scanning my Metro Card at the front of the bus when we lived here before - but I know that you can just Apple Pay on the metro now - is it the same on the bus? Anyway, I was reminded of this when I saw this post. My son really did not realize that he had done anything wrong. And yes, I shared the link with him. [/quote]
