Again with all things in Canada the goal is to be better than the US, forget about the rest of the world and how we compare.
Pretty sad eh.....

again we should stop putting TTC in the North America context. Only About 8 cities citizens have a decent system to star with.
In my experience, the location of tap-on is never fully accurate for moving vehicles.Looks like not all streetcars are able to show where you tapped. I got on a WB 505 @ Dundas/Bay on that last tap.
Brad Ross at TTC has said that they are temporarily using a time-base (2-hr?) transfer and won't go switch Presto to the TTC transfer rules until mid-January.
I don't see it as fare evasion at all. You are in good faith tapping in wherever you go. It's the system that determines when a fare is charged (or not). Fare evasion is a deliberate non-payment. You are trying to pay, they're just not taking your money.
This was the same scenario when DRT went live with Presto. At that time, DRT's transfer rules were the same as the TTC. Of course, in the end, DRT just adopted the unlimited 2h transfer like everyone else.
Presto is now enabled on all TTC streetcars, according to Del Duca.
