Or someone informs them that they have no ticket and casually walks off with a smile on their face?

Devil's in the detail. Only the DPP can take criminal cases to court - DPP is not obliged to reveal why he decides not to take a case to court. Therefore your accusation for criminal assault will not get far. Where it does come into play is if you are defending a summons in court and such talk is beyond the realms of this board (in other words it'll cost you
)
Now, before we all get accused of publising a handbook for fare evasion - it is an activity which we completely and utterly condemn. We are all in favour of fare evaders being caught, every last one of them, and paying the standard fare and if not, in the full force of the law being applied to them.
So there!!
