  Should be either Hougang Ave 2 or 3. (But Ave 3 is quite long.)

  Not so relevent, but say a "Bus Kilang" parked at the bus stop opposite Traders Hotel at Grange Road on Tuesday evening (at about 10). Can't tell if it broke down, but obviously it wasn't supposed to be there.

  Near accident between 9011K (SV143) and 9646D (SV2 at Lor 2 exit of Toa Payoh Interchange.
  
  9011K was turning out of interchange into Lor 2, with 9646D right behind..
  However, 9011K driver misjudge the turning radius and the right front almost hit the centre divider of Lor 2. So he stop and reverse the bus without noticing 9646D was right behind it... He slowly reverse and 9646D driver was just pressing the honk, and yet did not reverse back to help the driver of 9011K, even though there is no bus behind 9646D.
  
  9011K almost hit 9646D while reversing, but just stop in time and the driver manage to turn into Lor 2 without hitting the centre divider...
