Kids, teens 18 and under to ride ferries free beginning Oct. 1
SEATTLE — Kids and teens 18 years old and younger will ride Washington State Ferries (WSF) for free beginning Saturday.
WSF said the free entry for youths is part of the Move Ahead Washington transportation package. "The law directs transit agencies to provide free fares for passengers 18 and under across the state," according to WSF's press release.
The legislation only applies to youth riding as a vehicle passenger or walk-on; not teens driving a car, WSF said. Drivers under 19 will pay the adult vehicle and driver fare.
