Then I guess it's a simple case of weighing up the cost to the company in terms of lost revenue versus the cost of any fine levied. However, I imagine persistent offending will incur harsher penalties over time which could, theoretically, lead to even more severe penalties being issued. The company might get away with it every now and then but, as impractical as it may be, I doubt the 'we're actually putting commuters needs first by operating this service' excuse will wash in a legal battle.
