It's ridiculous- ESPECIALLY at $300. Who the hell fines $300 for a lollypop and sleeps at night?

I see. So because he wasn't DEFACING the property it's okay to openly defy the NO FOOD rules?
Again I take the bus every day, have you accidentally sat one some cretin's spilled coffee? sticky cough drop? gotten hit in the ankle because some one didn't finish all their soda and left the bottle to roll up and down the bus as it goes from stop to stop? How about newspapers strewn about all over the place because someone didn't take their paper with them when they were done reading it? I live at the end of the line and there's no "bus cleaners" stationed here to clean up in between runs. That stuff stays in there until it goes back for the night.
Will the Bus company pay me for dry cleaning my suit? Will the fuck that spilled the coffee pay for my dry cleaning? No. I pay for it. If I'm lucky it doesn't stain and I don't lose the suit. But if it doesn't, then I'm also out the cost of a suit and it's replacement.
I had posted a similar thread about a woman eating a candy bar in the DC Metro again a place with NO FOOD rules. Candy Bar thread
EDIT: sorry it was posted by pan6467
I lived in Singapore, the Metro there is VERY CLEAN. You can eat on the floors practically. The streets are clean because there is NO GUM for sale and they actively check incoming passengers from flights for said gum like it was any contraband.
