SG only have 220+ routes mah, plus 40 are JIS/Parks?feeders/Intratown/Townlink and that leaved to 140+ routes for us to take, somemore 10+ routes are still limited operation, so there is a chance to meet each other, is that just we did not noticed each other, maybe sitting side by side, so it was sometime sad.
Regarding to the bus turning wrongly, do not guide the driver when unsure, sometime it will complicate the situation instead of diffuse it, guide if you die die know route and area, but guiding was quite okay in the end, however standby drivers should be more careful in driving, one day last year, i took 162 to HGINT, the driver is SP so he drived slowly and take 100%attention on the bs and route signs,

You only say about the route. How about the trips each route make per day?
as well as the different sectors of the route as well as the time of the day? -

Certain models got certain licence.I believe DD got a few types:
1) Volvo - Can drive VO with this
2) Leyland - Can drive LO with this
3) B9 - Drive B9TL and also operate the manual ramp with thisOther models that have their own licence are usually those WAB buses like K230, or low floor ones like the B10BLE CNG. And not forgetting the Superlong.

hmm.. i wondering why vo3 and lo3 got separate license?? or maybe its bcos lo3 got heavy steering? vo3 driver drive lo3 got culture shock

its jus that they may not have gone and tried out those buses, usually they need to try one round to familiarise themselves but sometimes starter give then jus go with the flow. B9TL no need to learn 1. jus need to learn how to operate the WAB facilities in the bus. K230UB no the other hand is different cos of the bumper issue.
CNG status is so that the Jurong Island Security has approved the following BCs to be able to enter Jurong Island to pump Gas for the B10BLE CNGs.

There was a Standby BC doing sv113/113A few months back. Sv113A end at Kovan station and start agn at Kovan station. Instead of turning to Hougang Ave 3 to Tampines road then to Kovan station, the BC jus make a U-turn at the nearest junction which is just metres away from the ending bus stop.

I thought BC with LO can just drive VO? Not sure in vice-versa.

There is no VO or LO Licence. There is just DD licence. If a driver is given a LO or VO which he doesnt like to drive, he can always claim that he doesnt know how to drive.
As for the B9. There is no certain licence. Just that the BC must go through a lesson so as to know the basic controls of the Bus and on the operation of the ramp.

DD SPOTTED IN BUKIT PANJANG!!
I was having lunch at BPP today. My friend suddenly pointed at the window and commented: "Since when did SBS come to Bukit Panjang?" I was stunned when I saw a VO (Or is it LO? Cant really tell from the side) with pax on board along Bukit Panjang Road, turning into BP Ring Road. It was abt 1.40pm.
At first, I thought it was a chartered bus (Does SBST allow chartered DDs?) but it turned out to be a hopelessly lost 168. Lol. Didnt manage to catch the rego though. Really wondered how the BC ended up in BP. Its so far off its route.
