The bus company will compensate the injuried passengers.Originally posted by wuming78:lucky is singapore. if this happened in the US the victims would haf sued the asses off the bus company! -
Is this the first case? I don't think there were buses in the past that had radiator problem.
-
I think service 855 has a similar incident last year.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:Is this the first case? I don't think there were buses in the past that had radiator problem. -
A Malaysian Lance also had the same incident take place.

Jia lat...now take buses also have to worry about whether u can hurt by this radiator thingie...aikz!

There are similar cases which happened before in the past. One such incident would be the Service 855 incident, whereby a Malay boy was left with his bottoms scalded with the hot water spurting out from the back.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:Is this the first case?

It seemed that the Service 855 incident isnt enough to prompt the bus companies to have more regular maintenances on their buses

Yes, it is SBS366X, as noted by the video shown during the news broadcast..Originally posted by tranquilice:The rego is 366 (if I remembered correctly). It happened along West Coast Rd opposite block 726 food centre. -
If you are referring to service 855, I think it's a MB 0405.Originally posted by SBS9818A:A Malaysian Lance also had the same incident take place. -
It is said that the broadcasting team shot the picture of the wrong model, they took a shot of the Mercedes O405 rather than the correct model, UMW Dennis Lance.Originally posted by tranquilice:If you are referring to service 855, I think it's a MB 0405. -

For the members of the public, sitting at the back of the Volvo single-deck buses is absolutely safe, as the engine is mounted in the middle of the bus, between the entrance and exit doors. Except SBS1688K, the low floor Volvo bus whose engine is mounted at the back of the bus.
Cheers and warm regards -

Hehe.....they are worlds apart in terms of comfort , engine and body work. But most pple think tt all buses look the same, and some more observant ones would say tt this bus is newer than the other.
