  I keep forgetting the name of that road, but it's just beside the Northlink factory. I think it's called Admiralty Street.

  The bus approaches the turn, first turns 90 degrees to the right, then straightens out a bit and then turn another 90 degrees to complete the entire roundabout. That was a few years ago, don't know if LTA improved the road.

  TIB1182J on tow on 25th May 2006 (long time back) while on service 963. Sad to see a Volgren on tow. The BC told me the brakes were jammed, and a technician is below the bus trying to unlock it. The bus was also sitting at the bus bay for the whole afternoon. That didn't work, but they let all the hydraulic fluid flow out before the bus was able the move. I always wonder if the vehicle would get damaged when it is towed this way, ie most of the weight resting on the second axle.

  Probably the tyres will get burnt off if it's not unlocked. But I think the weight won't be a big problem since the engines is in the trailer anyway. And the same thing happens to cars when it gets towed, the entire weight rests on one axle.

  It may be rare by today's standards, but, if I'm not wrong, that bus used to be a permarnent bus on that route.

  Not that rare. Anyway I believe like the trident, the EDS can only take in a few routes. Hence its either 153, 80 or 165.

  not all but when towed rests on one axel(if the brakes are not locked that is). i've seen a volvo olympian towed outside my school gear placed in reverse and pulled by the sbs recovery truck with all 3 axel resting on the road.
