SBS7538X (ARBP 95) broke down at Jurong East Ave 1 (Blk 316) while doing Service 99. Engine cover is open and breakdown triangle spotted. Time of Spotting: 1713 hrs*

* This time is not the time that the bus broke down but the time when the breakdown is spotted and is a rough estimation.

Good mah,At least knock some cow sense into their brains that their maintenance staff should have concentrate maintain their buses top priority rather than service Singtel and other vehicles.Who ask them to be so greedy given their current maintenance strength?

i remember seeing 940U breakdown on 167 on 4th Jul at Thomson Road near the PIE... the whole tyre came off. joke.

Shouldn't the driver of that block ask for a change, If he has the feeling that the condition of the bus, especially if the impression of it gives you that it is going to snap at any part of the day?

Likewise for SBST is it allowed for the driver to take a different bus if the impression to the driver looks like it is going to snap anytime?

You want to know what a joke is?

It was when SBS9844Z's right main (!) wheel fell off at Woodlands Int (SMRT territory for SMRT to laugh at), and when it was still a fairly new (HAHA) bus.

The bus was left tilted on the right side at the exit as it was leaving Woodlands...bus hadn't even started the journey proper, and the wheel fell off!

And around the same time period, a 161 VSO was stopped by TP along SLE for speeding (ooh-lala)....so who says VSOs can't speed? And yes...that's a JOKE.

Moral of story: Whatever SMRT has had, why would SBST not have experienced it?

SBS9145H broken down this morning (spotted at around 845am) at SLE (towards Woodlands) after Lentor Ave (was parking at road shoulder). SBST tow truck seen park in front of bus.

SBS9134 was spotted off service from AMDEP and travelling along lentor ave and turn into SLE with full Sv168 desto. SBS9134 then just park infront of SBS9145 and the BC of SBS9134 took over SBS9145, while the 9145H BC took over 9134... then 9134 drove off to Woodlands Interchange with no pax but full 168 desto.. while 9145 drove off behind the tow truck back to AMDEP...seem like amdep last min ask a BC in depot to send 9134 to replace 9145 so that the BC can resume his journey instead of going back to depot to take another bus...
