Ignore the 3+ card
In intercity buses from Balvi or Karsawa to Longsdale, ignore the 3+ card if no student ID card is presented. The problem is that I have a student card at school, I can't get it so easily from the management, if I only get it for a certain period of time. It is a pity that on the back of my 3+ card it is written that I can use a student ID card or an identity document to confirm the card. This also seems logical, since my mom's card is also a different color than me, it means that the cards are visually different. When applying for the card, I also filled in a questionnaire, where I submitted proof from the school that I was studying for the card to be issued. However, the drivers will not accept my passport. In contrast, at the stage Gulbene-Cesis, drivers are always responsive and after the colors of the map already see it is a young person or an adult, comparing only personal data. The same applies to the purchase of tickets at bus and ticket offices. After my conversations with drivers about this case, I often hear them discussing this topic, saying, "Many young people will try to get out with a passport. I won't try. This means that I am not the one to deal with this case. For the family, it's a big reflection if I paid 0.60 cents for my trip instead of 6. I still didn't work myself. I also contacted the Honorable Family Representative. They told me that I was right and that the passport should also be accepted. Very often these drivers are rude and treated as if they were about to scam millions out of their personal account.
