SBS8877K spotted in AMK bus interchange this whole afternoon for BCs of a certain service to get familiarised with the bus. the BCs tested out the EDS of different services (saw 23, 24, 69, 73, 80 EDS route details).
the recent euro Vs might be for 73? seems like the BCs are testing out the EDS route details of 73 most of the time i saw the EDS change.

they dun play with EDS, they TEST the EDS. lol -
The past few days, i've been trying to pong as much Euro Vs on various services to hopefully debunk the stuffiness theory for the aircon...
today i rode on 8585 on 81 around 1838hrs frm SGI to Tampines.
the aircon was okay as i sat on the 3rd last row. moreover, it was evening time so to speak.
but this BC ah... he did a couple of things that made the ride quite unbearable.
1. he kept forgetting to release handbrake when moving off. i counted 1, 2, 3......... & then i lost count. one point i thought, this isnt being forgetful. this is a habit.
2. passenger press bell, doesnt open exit door. passenger PRESSES bell, doesnt hear. closes entrance door aft passengers board, moves off, passenger shouts frm exit door, jambrakes and opens exit door. this happened twice. some more the way he exit is to get to the road before the bus stop bay concrete divider kerb. so u can imagine how we stopped.
took an unbearable 46mins to get to the bus stop after TPJC.
better days ahead!
