Nonsense. As if.
Tell me. How many ppl were killed for safety issues in bendies
in Singapore. Now tell me. How many ppl were killed due to safety
issues of DDs in Singapore. I can recall very vividly the Bedok
incident u noe. That's one. I believe there r many more.
HK cannot shift to SDs is becoz that time it was under ruling of
British gvmt, until 1997 when they finally brought in more SDs. But
it's becoz of high population and expensive price to do a SD
turnover that they stuck with DDs till now. Singapore can switch to
bendies u noe. IT'S NOT AS HARD.
London cannot shift to SDs is becoz of loading conditions,
popular demand in buses and also high population.
I think SBS1000U (and maybe u, who juz spout nonsense in the
high loading svc thread) is/are the one(s) siding the DDs, nvr
giving the bendies a thought on its pros. I DO give DDs pros too.
Otherwise I would hv tore SBS down for sending away my
B10MA.
Selfish kids always think of your own fantasies.
Don't even bother that our roads don't have enough space for
these long buses as our population density is increasing so fast
and this is going to be more dense in future.
Don't care that SMRT bus services is detoriating badly partially
because of bendies hogging up the spaces in depots, interchanges
and bus stops, delaying other buses and make our buses less
efficient, and making their planning of operations more
difficult.
Never think about how hard it is for the technicians to maintain
these complex parts of these bendy buses and how tiring for BCs to
drive these buses everyday, just because they have to be more
careful of the extra length.
No one yet has been killed by bendies accident yet but many
have been injured by one on 857 few months back.
And yet no practical thinking of how to solve the problem for
the future, and giving more problems for SMRT with your silly
fantasies. LTA has already made their point indirectly, like it or
not. 
If SMRT have DDs, comfirm maintenance more worst
lol..
SBST operates DDs for more than 30 years, not much problems.
SMRT
operates bendies for only 15 years and so much problems.
I only saying bendies are more practical for feeder... much
better than DD...
faster unloading during peak...
True to some extend, but how about rainy days or 3rd door spoilts
or EZlink card reader cannot work???
And how many time wasted by the queue of bendies in front so
that this bendy bus can stop safely beside the bus stop to alight
the passengers???
Seeing your posts make me wonder who's the real RETARD big
time.Have u ever drive a bendy or servicing a bendy before?Sg is
good for bendies??R u sure?Then how come till now there's not even
a single WAB bendy in SMRT fleets after the WAB scheme is
introduced 5 years back?Look Im not a bendy hater but with
Singapore grewing populations and vehicles growth bendies are not
feasible anymore.DDs in heartland got problem ah?Which svc can u
list out some?Already there are many examples of SMRT crappy
maintenance and bus care evidence.Bendy burnt while on svc,Engine
roaring like mad,Stuck gearbox,MAN buses dirty like asshole,Air
suspension leak and the bus aren't 1 year yet!If they think bendy
is so practical and is part of SMRT icon why dun they at least
maintance the engine in good condition?FYI there are many problems
with articulator joints,Axles cracked and engine overheat cases
particularly Wldep.Technician also complain very complex and
troublesome.During TIBS there's less problem with bendy compared to
smrt now..It's up for you to believe or not kid but I assure you
there will be no bendies in future!
And don't need to remind me about proofs.I always attend
LTA/PTC/SMRT meetings
Mr carbikebus, please refer to my first paragraph of this post.
Problem is not just about the environment, even people are pissed
with them.
