3S have come to a pretty ovhen London Transport I employ what are almost clothes detectives to catch cheats on buses and rground trains. Many of escape without paying when they see a uniform but are likely to "have their collars felt" by the men and women inspectors in mufti.
Their task is to recover some of the £30m a year that fraud on London buses and the Underground is costing. Fines and costs have averaged about £50 for each of more than 1,000 people convicted of swindling the Underground last year. But there is a long way to go to stop mass fraud even by people who will hotly deny that they are dishonest, regarding a free ride as fair rather than fare game.
