Sometimes the BC also has to be careful around blindspots . Yesterday took a VO3x on 168 (forgot regoOriginally posted by 201911:no offense meant,but by the look of the position of the bus, the boy had probably been knocked down just after the turn. Accidents can happen if people cross roads at blind spots/just after turns making it difficult for motorists to see the pedastrians.the BC probably saw the boy just after he turned the bus,and by then it would be too late to stop the bus.
) the bus was making a sharp right turn due to a road construction infront when we stopped suddenly . Luckily the car horned at us , otherwise the bus would have scraped the car. -

The article say Police are still investigating the matter, but then it still seems to be fully blaming the BC, saying SBST has suspended the captain, etc.Originally posted by bus555:http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p70/bus555_photo/TeenagerkilledinHougangCentralaccid.jpg

Might not fully be the BC's fault. Maybe the boy never look properly then cross the road. -

Today
SBS9149Y & TIB372J were involved in a minor accident @ 1740hrs at Boon Lay interchange alighting berth. No one was injured & I only saw the rubber strip surrounding the rear windows of SBS9149Y came off & not sure how "badly" the damage was suffered by TIB372J though. Two "green" men were spotted holding cameras & rushing to the scene. -
I wonder if there's prize for finding out the rego in the background of the picture?

Flooding in some parts of Singapore due to heavy rain
There was flooding in some parts of the island on Tuesday due to heavy rain, leading to traffic chaos.
The rain started early as Singaporeans were about to go to work or school, and it did not let up for much of the morning.
The area near Commonwealth MRT station saw traffic slow down as some vehicles got caught in the flood waters.
An SBS bus crashed into a taxi stand when the driver tried to drop off his passengers at the shelter off the main route amidst the heavy downpour, said an SBS spokesperson.
An elderly woman was slightly injured when glass from the windshield fell on her. -

Took CSS189D on 853 today and the water was leaking into the bus sofa (Good grief Nissan Buses have sofa, if those leather seats ...
) once it entered the rain-heavy parts of Serangoon at around 10am.
I wonder what if they deploy CSS189D to 852/5 or 970. -
