During a final lift at Levittown, if you tap a senior's key card to close their trip, what additional action is required?

• A. No action needed
• B. Sell/issue a new regular ticket
• C. Sell/issue them a QT at an upcharge price
• D. Refund the original fare

Answer: (C)

When tapping a senior's key card to close their trip during a final lift, it is necessary to sell or issue them a Quick Trip (QT) at an upcharge price. This is because seniors often have specific fare structures in place, and while their initial trip may be covered by the key card, any additional rides or extensions typically require a different ticketing process. An upcharge is sometimes applied to accommodate policy adjustments or to reflect the unique fare related to additional segments or services beyond the senior fare. Thus, handling the transaction as a QT allows for proper fare collection and ensures compliance with SEPTA's revenue policies. This approach helps maintain accurate revenue records and provides the necessary fare structure for any additional travel needs the senior may have.
