Is it legal to collect the bus card wear fee?

Illegal. Public transportation is a public welfare undertaking, and the bus card service cannot be arbitrary. Any charge must go through legal procedures to determine the legality of the charge and the rationality of the standard. In fact, the wear and tear fee charged by the bus card is essentially charged by the enterprise itself. Secondly, the implementation of loss fee is to increase the public's responsibility. Third, it has seriously violated the property interests of consumers. Expropriation refers to the administrative behavior that the subject country obtains the ownership of collective and individual property with administrative power and gives appropriate compensation based on the needs of public interests. Collection needs to be carried out in accordance with the authority and procedures prescribed by law.
