No one knows what sv is that?
Anyway if as wat eggy says, that approach lagi shouldn't exceed 30 - 40km/hr depending on vehicle type for the curvy layout of the junction approach.
-
It's not uncommon for L/VO3X to skid even on dry days.
-
'say here say there'...
End of the day, tat junction is simply another dangerous junction as like Airport Rd/ Eunos Link/ Hougang Ave 3.

40 kmh is enough for bus to swerve off the road? its a turning leh... anyway like u said since its a dangerous junction then driver shld be cautious to turn at a slower speed...
rip to driver.. sad way to die esp from what we call world class transport vehicle... tsk tsk :(

the driver of the car is innocent sia
The Straits Times reported that the car is at the junction waiting for the traffic light to turn green when suddenly a double decker bus rammed into him

It all depends on the speed, road condition itself.But 40, is mostly for car...

Its sad when you die from reckless driving.
Its far worse when you don't pay the price and someone else does.

The bus driver should have been killed by the impact, given that the law will not give a death penalty to those who drive negligently and kill others. It's just the size of the bus that saved him. If these were two cars, both drivers would have said goodbye.

i'm trying to say it has NO EDS. Sorry for the misunderstanding -
Now I think the government and LTA will consider adding walls to the open-air NSL tracks and make it a tunnel... cause for an instance, ppl can juz throw something down from the overhead bridge at Bishan Rd near Junction 8 down to the Northbound NSL tracks and paralyse the train system... really...

I think must include in very heavy traffic flow for most times of the day?

Few weeks ago, at BNL Interchange, saw SBS7200U at berth B16 (I think)...tyre punctured and the bus wheel was on what I'd like to call the "platform". Later SBS maintainence people came to repair on the spot, but it looked like they did the WRONG TIRE!
Only 3 passengers (including me) were involved. No fatalities.
