LANDASAN – pastinya tidak kurang bilangan masyarakat yang berpandangan negatif terhadap langkah SPNB memberi pas percuma ini. Namun begitu, proses menggalakkan orang ramai menggunakan pengangkutan awam bukanlah sesuatu yang mudah. Peningkatan mutu perkhidmatan juga perlu diambil kira agar orang ramai menjadi bertambah selesa menggunakan pengangkutan awam.
