This puts this rumor in the shit-can from my point of view.

To violate my rights by searching me without provocvation, will not be overlooked by some fake ass gesture of a free ride that I have all ready paid for in advance.

In short, if I have already paid for my ticket, how the fuck are you then going to claim today's ride is free?

Besides this totally sounds like a bullshit rumor. I cant imagine the MTA or NJT giveing anything away for free no how.

Peace.
There are no monthly, or weekly, etc., passes, or similar deals, for the PATH trains. You can buy individual passes for the full price ($1.50 a ride), or save money by buying blocks of 20 or 40 rides at a discount. You can also use a basic NYC metrocard - and your card is charged $1.50. You cannot use the "special" NYC MTA metrocards, such as those have "unlimited" rides for certain periods, in the NJ PATH - only the regular type.

My wife's coworker has been stopped for a bag check twice, and was allowed to enter the PATH for free both times.
