    2. Have Your Gator1 ID Ready – While you won't typically need to present your ID on campus RTS bus routes (since it's free to ride for students), if you're "off campus", heading to or from your apartment, you'll need to present proof you're a student. Also, don't forget, if you or a friend or family member needs to pay their fare with cash, the driver can only accept exact change.

    3. Pair Your Bike AND the Bus for a Perfect Commute – While riding the bus is great, it may not get you precisely door to door. RTS buses are equipped with bike racks to assist you in your commute. Simply alert the driver that you're going to rack your bike prior to boarding. Then, once you arrive at your intended bus stop, you can utilize your bike to get to your final destination in a more eco-friendly and efficient way.
