Today I was waiting for 960 at around 2plus at after newton circus bus stop...

and the bus just flew by because there was another bus at the bus stop at that time...

you might be thinking the bus is full, but NO. it's totally empty and still with lot of seats...

it's like, wtf sia... waited so long finally bus come then no stop...

yea maybe it's my fault that there is another bus in front and i didn't run out to the streets to flag the bus and only flag inside...

bus555 SG

that's two digits. that's not even a word!

psps

Oh okay. The ones I know of are 188 and 190.

Sorry for the mishap. I just joined today so I'm kind of...bumping around with some things. ^^"

ehh.
students... you pay the CHEAPEST rate.. dont you dare complain.
next, you all are students.. next time you all grow up also wont dare to stand all the way behind the bus, making the bus full easily..

so its a chain effect.. those people you accuse of not moving in, they were like you last time also.. see adults never move in, so now tit for tat

sbst275 SG

dun move in, it'll become a habit.

not to say not moving to upper deck.

Seriously go take a look n see how packed SBS Sv 160/ 170 can go when there's lots of ppl wanting to board.

dragg SG

actually there is a way to solve this problem.

allow commuters to board the bus from both doors.

sinicker SG

actually it depends on the service also. you cant expect to sardine pack each time at each bus stop.
you'll only end up spending more time dwelling at the bus stops as the passengers play human tetris to get to the exit door to alight.
unless we're talking about 969 at tampines, 161/168 at woodlands, 160/170/950... then yes, pack pack pack!!

and not forgetting IKEA shuttle!

that's what they do only for JB svcs (at checkpoints only).

too bad there is a lot of passenger volume.

@105090:

Huh, I don't really see how paying the cheapest rate concerns our right to complain. It's not like you pay more to be able to speak up, and what's more we take the same bus and receive the same type of service. These are completely different grounds.

Besides, why would we not "dare" to stand all the way back to the rear? What's so frightening about moving to the rear? o_0 And why would we be so bored as to follow what these "adults", as you speak of, are currently doing, even if it's "implied revenge"? I don't get it.

Reminds me of an incident on 265 once...

The bus was packed with students from a certain school on its way back to AMK MRT. Students were all on the front part of the bus, back was totally void of standing pasengers.

Driver quickly drove into a bus stop, believe he was late too, and kept shouting at them to move to the rear and etc so that people at this stop could board.

~2 minutes of shouting at them went on, guess how many moved to the back?

A measly sum of TWO!! Furthermore, they didn't even move to the "rear", just at the front of the steps.

students sure kena big time one.. because they r wearing uniform.. public always like to identify and complain students of anti-social activities out of school, such as hogging bus seats, refusing to move to the back, treating bus like a market, are hot favourites

105090 SG

that's what they do only for JB svcs (at checkpoints only).

yea.. very good idea.. sadly, only 160/170 does that now, and only on a limited basis.
used to be every trip they do it.. now, only some times..

last time 99, 291 293 also have this programme.. now ceased. at bus stops, drivers also dont open back doors.. donno why.. scared people dont tap? that few cents so impt?

also had seen a handful of BCs who had opened back doors and switch card readers before

businesses are set up to earn $.

furthermore, its difficult to control e ppl when u open e back door, unless u have another bus conductor on board.
