Anyone noticed the narrow leftmost lane along Lornie Rd? Usually the leftmost lane is wider than other lanes as its intended for heavy vehicles which are wider. I believe when heavy vehicles are on this lane, part of the body would protrude onto the 2nd lane which can be very dangerous to others. Don't know if bus captains ever brought up this issue who in turn feedback to the authorities?
if you're qualified to drive, you would know how to handle such tight situations...

it's actually preference and timing. if it's peak hour, the BCs will have to keep to the left most lane coz up ahead there's a bus stop. if they are on the second lane from the left, they will have problem moving back to the left most lane for pick up passengers if there is any. Whereas for non-peak hour, comes down to preference.
The reason why the BCs don't like to drive on the left most lane is because there are vehicles who like to stick their head out when turning into the main road, causing them to jam brakes.
what i mean is that, part of bus (KUB) will go to Lane 2 while travelling on the left most lane...not mean the whole bus travelling on Lane 2..

Service 165 Scania K: Opts to travel on the outer lanes. Driven by who, some folks should know.
Service 852 Dennis Lance/O405 (foreign country bus captain): Turn at speed, drops out of double white onto the second lane.
Service 74 VO3X: Shake at low speed, managed to stay all the way in the lane.

I thought when Ezlink cards were introduced, some buses had this strips there to slot in a plastic to cover up the validator.
