btw lots of drivers, why do they open entrance and exit door together at bus bay, then close exit door back?
to put the exit readers to sleep mode so that people cannot tap at the exit immediately after tapping their ezlink card at the entrance. There are a lot of people who do that especially for long dist trunk services, deducting only $0.64 for the whole trip from end to end. Previously what the drivers do is put the exit readers on "ENTRY/EXIT" mode, but since that is removed the only other way is to put them to sleep mode by opening & closing the exit door.
