Machines to buy one-off fares or cards with a balance, network services, mobile payment methods, machines to take the fares on each bus, etc.
How about the cumulative impacts of fuel wasted waiting for someone to dig their fare out of their pockets...
And for relatively small transactions, which tend to have high administrative overhead!
Charging fares is costly!
