   New Information      
               AB 1561 WILL EXPIRE SOON              
Abide to Ride Law
 
October 1, 2009 marked the day that RT began to enforce new Administrative Rules that govern a person's behavior on Light Rail and Buses. This new law was authored by Senator Darrell Steinberg and is now a part of RT's Administrative Code, Title XII and  State Public Utilities Code (PUC) 99171.  This Law is a pilot project with Fresno Transit...
It allows RT to remove people, depending on the severity of the behavior, from riding the bus or light rail for specified periods of time.  What types of behavior is outlined in the 'abide2ride' law...it also give administrative remedies to riders to appeal the citation. 
This law can be found at the "You Must Abide to Ride" link at:

or you can go to this link to see a flowchart of the process.
