It's great isn't it. Not having a pop card or key card is an excuse for lack of common sense. Thankfully the QCS proposal (
) would apply a common sense approach. If you don't have a card for whatever reason, or have left it at home, you don't need to worry. A multi-modal single ticket is available for 80p, with a day ticket being priced at £1.50. Only 20p and 40p more expensive than if you were to use a pass.
