Let's be clear, I don't care about them asking to see my ID, but as a general rule, I don't go around showing it to strangers unless I can help it, hence not showing unless they ask. But the least they can do, when I do show them it, is to actually look at it. I could have been 30 and I would have been given the ticket despite them 'checking' my ID.

Plus, like I say, I can probably count on one hand the amount of times I've been asked to show ID for the 5-25 ticket until last month, which is why I also asked if there has been a crack down on it recently, given they probably don't want to be losing out on £2.50 if they can help it!
