Accident or Breakdown Thread (Apr 2007 - Jun 2007)
-
Just like if I say I (SBS9806J) and/or SBS9814K not on 65, then both breakdown? Or better still, both crash into each other because both not on 65.Originally posted by Scania:So if I dint see a bus at interchange means it break down? Nonsense, lowest form of assumption. -

SBS3829Y (off service) broke down on the right most lane along AMK Ave 6 (towards YCK) , just opposite YCK MRT at around 9.50 am.
Recovery truck were seen parking before and mechanics trying to repair the bus.
maybe should have just tow this bus back to AMDEP for checking/repair, since it is only around 500M away, especially after that incident whereby the container truck hit the lorry at Tuas a few days back.. -

Bus: SBS 0196U, Service 168 (Cameo Bus, Originally SP AMDEP)
Date: 27 April 2007
Time: 1437hrs at time of witness
Location: 'The Clearwater' Condominium
Details:
1. SBS 0196U was on Service 168 (suspect) when it broke down outside a condominium.
2. A warning triangle was placed about 5 metres away from the bus. However, at time of witness, the destos were removed, with the white part facing the outside. A closer look suggested it was probably cameoing on Service 168.
3. Too bad I wasn't on this bus or else I could have earned myself my first breakdown ticket. -

BREAKING NEWS!
Bus(es): SBS 0420Y on Service 26, SBS 2803M on Service 32 (Cameo Bus, Originally 222/30e BNDEP)
Date: 28 April 2007, Saturday
Time: About 1940hrs
Location: Bedok North Bus Interchange
Details:
1. SBS 0420Y and SBS 2803M were scheduled to depart from Bedok North Bus Interchange at approximately the same time, with SBS 0420Y on Service 26 departing first.
2. The BC of SBS 2803M, without the knowledge of the fact that SBS 0420Y was reversing and preparing to leave, left the berth.
3. I was at the CSS Service 608 berth when I heard a loud bang. It probably came from the two buses I mentioned, so I looked out and saw that the Service 26's bus (SBS 0420Y) was stucked. I went to have a look.
4. The radiator part of SBS 0420Y had disloged on it's left looking from the front and there was a 'spider web' on the glass; it probably had cracked. The damage to SBS 2803M could not be examined.
5. Thereafter, the passengers of SBS 0420Y were directed to board SBS 0135X which as parked right beside SBS 0420Y while for the passengers of SBS 2803M, the bus which they got onto was unknown.
6. Some BCs were taking out their cameras to take the first shots of the damage incurred at the first moment. I am unable to show you how badly the bus had damaged, but it was just only the front of the bus that got slight damage.
7. The reason of the accident was unknown, but I suspect it was because of error and negligence of the BC of SBS 2803M. He may have not known that a bus beside him was reversing. When he reversed, he unknowingly crashed headlong into the front of SBS 0420Y.
8. The BC of SBS 0420Y may also be blamed as he did not horn to warn that a bus was behind when SBS 2803M was reversing. -

Well, even if you don't want to write an essay, at least support your pictures with some captions. Otherwise, how could one tell what has happened?

STOMPer Jerende Teoh, who is sitting for his PSLE at Bukit Timah Primary School this year, witnessed this accident today (2 May).
The 12-year-old was waiting for his bus after school, along Lorong Kismis, at about 12:40pm when he saw a motorbike rider collide with an SMRT bus.
He told STOMP that the motorbike rider (a lady) fell off her bike, and her face started bleeding.
“There were a few scratches on the bus. No one else was hurt. An ambulance came about five to ten minutes later and took the lady away,” he said.
