And also as usual, produced lots of grey smoke from exhaust pipe...
Their maintenence lorry is some dunno what lorry! Like 3rd party... I've also never seen SMRT tow trucks! Unlike SBS which has their own lorries... Show's how cheap they are... -

Guess SMRT do have their engineering department, but they don't have their own tows. Twice I also saw third party tow trucks (towing 1157H and 1182J), but SMRT does have their own maintenance vehicles, Mitsubishi Canters, which always don't have enough tools... -
SBST also starting to use commercial tow trucks. Heard there are only 3 SBST recovery trucks left to go around the whole island
All SMRT towings are done by commercial tow trucks. -

The bus was too close to the roadside as it turned into a bus stop. Rego KR9862 (AP151). Having lots of accidents these days...

TIB945 (SV 853) involved in an accident this afternoon at 3 pm at junction of AMK Ave 6 and Ave 9.
Front of bus was badly damaged. Windscreen cracked after collision with a Black Lexus SUV. An old lady on bus was injured and have to be taken away to hospital.
And the black lexus SUV was drove by the mediacorp actor Wang Shi Nan. His son was also slightly injured in the accident..
And i pity those passengers on board this bus. SL does not ask them to alight and transfer to another bus toward Yishun. ALl the passengers just sit inside the bus and wait and until i leave the scene half an hour later. those passengers are still inside the bus. -
SBS9131Y (SLBP 179) on service 157 broke down opposite Church of St Mary the Angels on the afternoon of 29 July. BC was drumming his fingers on the steering wheel and all destos were removed. Raining heavily at that time. I am not sure about the deployment of this bus so apologies if info not correct. Info from sgwiki...

That might be the reason why 9131Y is not in service today, causing the big mess up of 179...Originally posted by jetabt767400:SBS9131Y (SLBP 179) on service 157 broke down opposite Church of St Mary the Angels on the afternoon of 29 July.
Anyway, 3733A of 502 (with destos intact) broke down outside the old Boon Lay Interchange, along Jurong West St 64, heading towards Boon Lay Way. The strange thing is, 502 doesn't go there. I passed the bus around 4.30pm. By 5.30, it was gone though. -
Maybe it already broke down around that area (the other half of JW St 64 or JW Central 1) & was on the way back to SLBP.Originally posted by stooper:Anyway, 3733A of 502 (with destos intact) broke down outside the old Boon Lay Interchange, along Jurong West St 64, heading towards Boon Lay Way.
