UK proposes "yellow card" system to warn first-time train fare offenders instead of fining them.

UK watchdog Transport Focus proposes a "yellow card" system for train passengers caught without the correct ticket or railcard, aiming to make fare enforcement fairer. First-time offenders would receive a warning instead of immediate fines. The proposal also includes a digital database for railcards and improved fare collection measures to prevent fare evasion and boost passenger trust. This comes after media attention on passengers being prosecuted for small fare evasion amounts.
