ytd newspaper: a Svc 66 BC driving a merc CAC kena beaten up by a man and flee
I wouldn't be surprised if BC beat up passengers. So many cases of passangers beating up BC. Ask SBST to teach all their BC to learn karate or judo lor. So each time BC use it on the passenger for self-defence, BC get to claim $7. Ha, too much for my nonsense.

Jeez, seriously you ass-poking bus-geeks got way too much free time snapping photographs of buses, discussing bus routes, etc. Man, should you geeks at one time end up discussing about the manliness of bus captains, I wouldn't be surprised a single bit.
Ooooooops, I meant bus-homosexuals.

Today Sunday Times report about the new Scania and Mercedes-Benz buses.
Copy and paste from website because I am lazy to type whole article.
The new single-deck buses from SBS Transit and SMRT may look nice but some commuters are unhappy with them.
One-third of 50 commuters - young and old - in a Sunday Times poll said the rides could be better.
Their beef was over issues like seating (fewer seats than the older buses) and design (the need to climb steps midway in the bus).
The buses run by SBS are made by Swedish company Scania while SMRT's are made by German firm Mercedes-Benz.
But there are advantages too. The new buses have low floors - about the same height as the kerb - and there are no steps at the doors. This is a plus for the elderly and less mobile passengers. The buses also have wheelchair-friendly features such as retractable ramps at the doors and two wheelchair lots.
SBS has rolled out 500 of these buses since November 2007 at a cost of $180 million. By the end of this year, another 400 are expected to hit the roads.
SMRT rolled out 67 new single- deck buses in May last year and plans to buy 60 more. Each costs more than $360,000.
In the Sunday Times poll, many feel moving about in the bus is not a breeze. Instead of a level platform from front to back, they have to mount two steps midway to get to the back, and climb another two steps to reach the rear-most seats.
Said retiree Teo Cher Muay, 64: 'The steps can be very dangerous for the elderly, as they have little strength in their legs. I've seen them trip.'
Even the young find the steps a challenge. 'I nearly fell the first few times I took this new bus, as it started to move before I sat down,' said student Goh Yee Hong, 22, who has ridden on both Scania and Mercedes-Benz buses.
