Which term refers to the device used to dispense tickets?

• A. Automatic Traffic Management System
• B. Ticket Vending Machine
• C. Traction Control Unit
• D. Brake Control Unit

Answer: (B)

The device used to dispense tickets is the Ticket Vending Machine. This self-service terminal sits at stations so riders can purchase fares, choose their pass type, and receive a printed ticket or digital receipt for travel. It’s specifically designed for selling transit fares, not for controlling trains or managing traffic.

By contrast, an Automatic Traffic Management System handles coordination of signals and traffic flow, not ticketing. A Traction Control Unit is part of the train’s propulsion system, helping manage power and wheel grip. A Brake Control Unit deals with the braking system. These functions are unrelated to selling tickets, which is why the Ticket Vending Machine is the correct choice.
