Euro IV, Euro V batch or both?if Euro IV batch, i sure know the culprit - vibration. Although now not so bad, but the comfort level still not there, unlike the Euro V batch and OC500LE.
I remember an old granny told the BC : "This new bus right? Why the bus so uncomfortable? vibrate till i can't take it" when the first Euro IVs were in service

Well I thought they hadn't fixed it. The vibrations on the Euro IV has gotten from bad to worse, not even the B9TLs could go to that level.

We are sorry for the unpleasant, jerky rides
Letter from Tammy Tan
Vice-President Corporate Communications, SBS Transit
We refer to the letter, “Jerks on the buses should be dealt with” (May 14). We share Mr Lim’s observation that some Bus Captains do not apply the correct techniques in braking while driving the new buses. On such occasions, we do sincerely apologise to him and affected commuters for the discomfort caused by the jerky rides. As Mr Lim has correctly pointed out, our new buses do indeed have a more advanced and sensitive braking system. We have been training our Bus Captains on the correct way to drive the new buses including the need to apply less pressure on the brake pads. Unfortunately, old habits are sometimes hard to break. We will continue to emphasise to all our Bus Captains the need to drive correctly so that commuters can enjoy a smoother ride. We thank Mr Lim for his feedback and apologise once again for the occasions where his ride was less than pleasant. -

Everytime it's like that what.Definitely they will beat around the bush no matter what and protect the company. -
the point of contention here is how she does it well. not everyone can do it like her.
in contrast, look at how some forum users here give us a wall of text to protect themselves.
tammy tan does not write a wall of text.
some should learn from her way of writing. i don't wanna say names or point fingers ahhh.... -

Alamak. That means EuroV Scanias are "Enviromentally friendly, better than EuroIV. Comfort, worse" ?
