I actually had this exact thing happen to me on the train. Had a monthly pass, but it took me a good 5 mins digging in my wallet to find it which pissed the cop off. I finally found it and he wrote me up anyways because I didnt scratch what zone.
Cops have the right to write any ticket, but that doesnt mean it will hold up in court. I lost in "court" because my thing wasnt valid due to not scratching a zone. Tried to explain my address and the stop was only 1 stop away, morning rush hour, obviously I only ride it one zone, but the cop was a dick anyways.
