Today I forgot my travel card so purchased two tokens (tickets) to ride the BRT, one to Tonzilin and one to come back. I was pretty surprised to learn that when I tried to use the ticket I had bought in the morning to go home it wouldn’t work and I was told pretty rudely that you can’t buy tickets in advance. At the point a policeman took the ticket and told me to buy a new one. I am not gonna cry over 2kuai (although it sounds like I am) but it felt a bit odd not being able to use a ticket I had purchased that morning to save time.
Anyway kinda boring post but thought it might help anyone that plans to stock pile BRT tokens for the future.
