Either that this bus was camoeing on 969 or 965,then the BC found something wrong with the bus so the BC stopped there,this is what I think

LOL. Would I still be posting if that happened? The BC complained of a hsssss sound whenever he stepped on the brake, like air leaking out of the brake system.

Lol. Cos u mentioned brake failure which is rather serious. The hissing sound should not affect the safety of the bus. Rather shocked that it was declared breakdown.

the brake pipe probably has a hole which causes the hissing sound. hissing sound = air leak = potential loss of braking power = brake failure sooner or later. so you want the bus to continue on service and endanger other people's lives la?

my gut feeling is that if it was a SLBP bus, you would have applauded the BC for taking the appropriate corrective measures. since it's a BRBP bus you would have dismissed the BC's actions as extreme and unnecessary. after all, SLBP can do no wrong ma...
