Mass transit should be free and not have ads on it.
In fact, all advertising in public spaces (including things like billboards mounted on private property but aimed towards the street) should be prohibited.
In Washington State, it’s relatively difficult to have billboards along highways. It’s one of the reasons our state is still beautiful to travel across.
Every time I end up in other states that have much looser billboard placement laws it’s just awful and I wonder how people can live like that.
For the public and environment policy that mass transit is made for (freeing up parking space; removing polluting cars from the road; reducing congestion; reducing carbon burn) yeah. Mass transit should have no usage cost
I’ll accept public service adverts. Telling you about services, advertising health and well-being, telling you to keep your feet off the seats

If I were “dictator for a day” one of the odd things I would do is ban all billboards. I think this every time I drive down the highway.

At least last I was there, wholly illegal in Vermont. You also never see it in Norway.
Maine is a billboard-free state
Many cities have taken baby steps, such as prohibiting tall signs. More steps to go
