  since the bus is leaking diesel, it must wait for its recovery truck to arrive and SCDF may be activated if the diesel is leaking quite badly..

  then again, might not be diesel possibly just the coolant..

  Not diesel definately. It's just engine oil I think.

  Bye bye $1000 .

  Then if your cab nothing wrong , can sent to your own workshop .

  Spent a few hundred repair , rather than sent to CDG , they whack you another $1000 .

  Bro Sandisct, if I'm not mistaken, advisable to report to Comfort, not too sure about SBS's procedure but I think bus captain needs to report as well.

  I had the same experience as you once, covering a Transcab Mercs, head out too far, SMRT bus came by and brushed against bumper, resulting in scratches to front bumper of cab.  The bus was fine.  According to a SMRT staff who called, their bus captain is required to lodge a report as long as an accident occurred, regardless minor or major.

  I did not report to Transcab then as my concern was to get the car resprayed and number plated fixed before returning it to hirer when he returns, then informing him.

  Due to the delay in informing Transcab, I could have been charged an excess of $2,800 but upon negotiation with SMRT, SMRT decided to bill me $1,000+ for repairs.

  Hope it helps

  If private settle...as one of my kaki, encounter before. Just recently. bus no damage just friction mark.

  Bus captain sure take a photo by himself. you also need to take your own picture.

  What i know he went to Toa Payoh bus interchange, to close the incident, worry the bus passengers will came with injury claim later, just to safe guard himself. Than just make another record to the cab company.

  Over at the bus Interchange according to him he only pay $90. and the chapter closed.

  Perhap this will help.
