...although I'd hope that Jack would learn from his mistakes and use his common sense by ordering a replacement now, before there's a repeat occurrence of today's events?
Appreciate there probably won't ever be an instance for Jack to buy his single/day ticket on a Metro first, as opposed to a bus, but one must scan their POP card to buy a discounted child fare on the Metro. Likewise if Metro staff undertake a revenue inspection. A cracked card cannot be scanned.
I know when I had a POP card and accidentally snapped it in two, I was told by Metro staff that I had to go into a travel shop as soon as possible to order a replacement, for the above reason. I was confronted by several bus drivers at the time too, but I clearly told them as soon as they gave me a funny look that I had already ordered a new one and was waiting for it in the post.
