I've been pondering some scenarios recently, referring to PLUSBUS.
1) I buy a PLUSBUS ticket to X. Whilst I am on the bus, my ticket is pick-pocketed and I get caught on board a bus without a ticket. Am I subject to the bus operator's penalty system or the laws of the railway where I purchased the ticket? If I am subject to the operator's penalty fare system, what laws could I be prosecuted under?
2) I board a bus from Y to Y's railway station. However, the bus is delayed and as a result, I miss my connection onto the train. The next train to my final destination is an hour's wait. If I send the bus operator my PLUSBUS ticket, can I get Delay Repay from the bus operator?
Thanks in advance.
