Quill Depot Posted August 18, 2012 Share #2 Posted August 18, 2012 Those were announciators on buses. They were used for people stalking what someones fare is! No they were used for if someone is surveying. They were useless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were useless. and I bet the MTA is regreting that, those boxes were used to see who was paying the regular fare and who is not, this was a good tool for undercover cops, now they are doing that in staten island (under covers) these boxes would have been helpful to see if an adult is using a reduced fare or a student card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
