Probably just people unaware of the area though.
If I've already got a ticket that allows me to just hop on a bus without (additional) payment, and I see a bus coming along, I'm hopping on that bus!
(Although I'll admit that hopping on a bus on Market St East and off at Market St was just a very nerdy way of avoiding using the pedestrian crossing!)
