Read the facts and the question and then choose the best answer.

A takes the same tram to work each day. After boarding the tram, A purchases a ticket from a machine. On its reverse side, the ticket contains five ' terms and conditions' in small print. A does not read or sign the ticket.

Is A bound by the five ' terms and conditions' printed on the ticket?

(b) Yes. Everyone is expected to know that tickets may include or refer to contractual terms and these terms become part of the contract.

(b) No. Not everyone is expected to know that tickets may include or refer to contractual terms and terms on the reverse side of a ticket do not become part of the contract.
