same-station exit

A Chinese lawyer is suing Nanjing Metro over a 2-yuan fee ($0.30 USD) charged for exiting a station shortly after entering. This sparked debate about fare policy fairness, as the exit occurred without a completed journey, unlike Shanghai’s grace period. The metro defends its policy as per regulations, while the public is divided, with some deeming it unfair and others supporting the need for minimum fees, raising questions on operational costs, public access, and city transit systems.
