None of your complaints are justified in my opinion.
1. Those who are less mobile will more than likely sit closer to
the front of the bus for ease of alighting and so that it is easier
for them to alert the driver if they require further assistance, so
the seats at the rear of the bus are not an issue.
2. With respect to peak period buses, standing room is more
important than seating room, because you can fit more people onto a
bus when there are more standees. More people per bus =
higher efficiency of service.
3. A low floor bus is no harder to maintain than a low entry
bus. There are similar constaints in relation to where
equipment must be fitted, and the engines used are identical to
engines found on low entry buses.
4. Regarding the rear engine creating a warmer interior
environment on a bus, again, how is a low floor bus different from
a low entry bus? Both have their engines mounted above the
rear overhang.
Low floor buses are SAFER for the travelling public, as there is
no danger of passengers tripping or falling on steps while the bus
is in motion. The single step that is adjacent to the
rearmost seats are unlikely to cause any problems since there are
ample handholds and staunchions located at that part of the bus so
that passengers can stabilise themselves if necessary. In
contrast, today's low entry buses will have two or more steps
leading to a very high rear platform.
Additionally, low floor buses promote a smooth passenger flow
throughout the bus and are therefore unrivalled when it comes to
loading and unloading times.
stfu lah u r juz biased against a LF bus kid especially reason 2
is the point i used to emphasis LE BUSES CAN FIT MORE THAN LF BUSES
U BITCH. STFU AND GO LEARN UR ABC, INSTEAD OF BEING A MUDABITCH AND
SPAMMING UR NONSENSE HERE. Retarded f***, there r steep steps
to the side seats too, duh!
And wat if there is only ONE seat at the axle area and the
person wif leg disabilities cannot sit there cause of steep steps?
One very steep steps can make difficultie rather than two easy
steps leh, ah boy.
And pls, the comments u commented earlier here on are all shit
too, u nvr experience the feeling of taking LF buses b4. I, as a
very frequent commuter of 109, can tell citaros of this kind are
DEFINITELY not supposed to be on Singapore roads AT ALL, kid.
