Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill amends the Traffic Ordinance and the Railways Ordinance to set an explicit definition of the duty to validate a ticket (trip authorization) on buses and light rail. The bill provides that a passenger who paid for the trip or is exempt from payment but did not validate their ticket will be required to pay an increased fare not exceeding 100 new shekels, compared with the higher fare (up to 180 shekels) for a passenger who did not pay at all. The fare will be set by notice of the Supervisor of Transportation or in regulations, with the consent of the Knesset's Economic Affairs Committee.
