  The reason being not agreeing on what you say on the underlined by me words is because that 67 SL don drive carefully along Geylang road in the peak hours.

  
  Actually I did not mean SL on xx route do not drive bendies carefully. What I meant in those svcs I mentioned are these svcs ply through busy sections such as Little India and the city. The bendies on these busy roads occupy more valuable road space and only one bendy can stop at bus-stop to pick up passengers, wheras two double-deckers can stop at the bus-stop and pick up pax together at one time. I feel that our bus operators shouldn't just stick to either bendies or double-deckers since both have their own merits. Purchasing a mixture of different types of buse would be ideal.

  A bit hard. Those B9TL services excluding 51 and other services which has less than 5 perm B9TLs(e.g. 151, 174) have a lower chance of getting KUBs due to the high demand on those buses.

  Don't drive carefully means reckless driving. It would mean 24 demerit points (increase?) and to appear in court.

  Now, would anyone try to 'don't drive carefully' again? Not for a person in the right sense of mind.

  Professional drivers know their vehicle well, they can push it to the limit, of course, �果自负.

  if they have a single single deck, nothing wrong.
