Which route will you not drive?
-
For me, they are:
51, 61, 67, 961, 980
These routes are too long and stressful/boring to drive IMO. -
66/66A/66B. sick of it.
Lets do 66e 
-
bus 30
-
67 ... Route is too long . But if you give me a box bendy , maybe i will drive .
975 . Service moves through rather crowded streets .
172 . Moves thru cemetery and quite a lone service . -
925 - very ulu
147 - Too long, but now B9TL so much better than last time
700/700A - Have to squeeze at the CBD Area
922 - Customer will complain why u take so long
178 - Too long, some more if get CAC UD worse still -
I have taken 30 from Bedok to Boon Lay 5 times and is really sick of it. Appr. 2 hours.Originally posted by WiNtEr'SkiLL:bus 30
Wonders how the driver can take it, who drives the same route everyday. -
these are my routes i don't like to drive.
13 - MBO405 and don't really like.
14 - route too long.
51 - same as above.
74 - Buses not really air-con, fully pack, wait passengers, alot of traffic lights.
186 - IMO, i think a mix of MKII and MBO405 WA with Scania NAC doesnt feel ok. -
there's zero mk2 now, all have been laid up.Originally posted by BusSpeeder:these are my routes i don't like to drive.

In no particular order:
14
30
51
61
67
97
111
133
143
502
518
Basically reason is either the route is too long, journey time too long or the service pose alot of harzards to traffic condition which causes the bus to be late, especially in events of ad-hoc events like erm PC Show, IT Show etc -
Will not want to drive route that pass through through the city especially Chinatown, Little India and Orchard because the road can be really crowded.
Will not want to drive route that are feeder, town link and short haul trunk because can get really sick of driving the same old route too many times a day.
Will not want to drive route that are long haul trunk because can get tired for spending a long time driving the entire trip.
So the conclusion is I will want to drive express or middle haul trunk without passing through the city.

For me:
Service 33 (Not famillar with the route)
Service 67 (Route too long and lame)
Service 80 (Wa lao, jammed along Bugis there sometimes)
Service 139 (A confusing Route)
Service 851 (Same as Service 80) -
Who cares ! Such a short service somemore you get a break after each round , not bad what .Originally posted by TIB1049L:922 - Customer will complain why u take so long

178 - Actually , getting a UD is much better than getting a bendy bus . Some people told me that BC rather drive rigid than bendies is because bendies are stressful to drive thru crowded streets. -
Svc 30 is semi-express. So what if it is the longest route by fare stage? Any problem with that?
I think 51 and 14 are worse. They serve Chinatown and Orchard areas respectively. -
According to some old thread, feeder route captains don't get much of a break after each trip. They will go for their rest after making about five rounds or so.Originally posted by Scania N113CRB luver:Who cares ! Such a short service somemore you get a break after each round , not bad what .

Best routes to drive are those short-haul roundtrips like 22 and 25. -

975 also a lonely service. move thru ulu ulu road.
I sometime take 975 outside Sungei Gedong camp if I book-out early. -
how about 56, the shortest fare stage trunk service.Originally posted by iveco:According to some old thread, feeder route captains don't get much of a break after each trip. They will go for their rest after making about five rounds or so.

Sv966 during PM Peak! Jams quite common along PIE (Steven, Lornie, Jln Toa Payoh) and have to loop back, facing similar problems. In the end journey time can get quite long and your leg dont get to rest too often as most of the route is on expressway

As mentioned earlier, 66 is probably a nightmare as well.
I find that 30 is ok. Its long but the route along pasir panjang private houses area and ECP is fine.
How bout 16? Its a long way from bukit merah to siglap and yet the driver has to loop! There's no rest at siglap.
