you are correct Dan -but Go north east seem to me, from the artical to want to use the stick route of increase prices for motorist and not use the carrot of making public transport more cheap.

also in my car I can listen to music, be guaranteed a seat, be guaranteed my car will turn up, choose who I share my car with etc etc. Its all about making an alternative to car travel as cheap as possible and more convenient ( in my view) others may have different priorities . £3 just seemed an amount per day that would get me out of my car and on to public transport.... but I would still need my car as I sometimes start at 6am and finish at midnight so buying a weekly/monthly/yearly ticket wouldn't help me at all either.
