I remember when I lived in Geneva I never once paid for the use of public transportation.  The two times I saw inspectors in the six months I was there I simply hopped off the bus, tram, or train before they got to me.

I voted 'free' simply because it removes a great deal of complexity from the operation of the system.  But one could do like Geneva and make payment required but rarely and selectively enforced.

Is it like here where you just hop on the back of the bus?

No, you can hop on anywhere you want, and there are virtually never any inspectors.

I love public transportation. Driving makes me very angry.

Yes!  Driving is an unpleasant chore.  Do you remember the line from the film Repo Man?
