Question

I boarded a bus (Dan), and the Rav-Kav machines were not working. Am I required to pay them for this ride the next time I board a Dan bus or not? (Note: There might be an option to pay the drivers in cash, but I'm not sure, and I didn't give him money since I didn't have any, only a Rav-Kav). What is the ruling?

Answer

Hello Rabbi,

There is no obligation to pay after the fact for a ride that was not paid for.

Source

According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi Avraham Fried, shlita, since the law does not allow companies to collect debts after the ride
