Dude, in the first link straight away:
That does not mean it didn't reduce them.
You even sounds more like a propagandist with your :
Lol get your facts right, then we can discuss.
Then you say the tram in Montpellier isn't good, like what on earth does that have to do with anything? And FYI I actually lived there for around 6 years, and yes the tram was slow and doesn't work well when it rains, but that was the case before it became free . Your point?
You are just word-salading to hide that you are wrong lol.
Yes that's explicitly what they meant. Most new passengers were people who were Walking or cycling before, but not a Lot of people who were driving before
That you should Invest the funds used for free Public Transport in improving the Network and it's quality.
Don't get me wrong, you should still offer cheap/free Tickets to People who need them, but nothing wrong to collect additional funds to finance the system
Most. Not all or nothing. So your initial statement is still wrong.
Also, why pay it with ticket sales which costs more than raw taxes?
