Transtar Solitarie SG

Sometimes I noticed that passengers did not flag at the bus stop when the bus coming. They just stand in front and wait till the bus stop. As a result, I think it is 50-50. It means that the bus captain is thinking wheater he or she wants to stop at the bus or just move on. I notice this everytime when I were in the bus to my destination.

just move on. if i on board i surely will help the bc one.

Most of the buses cant adjust the air-con. BCs (at least for myself) probably didnt do anything to it. It's normal that the air-con is colder in the morning n late night n not cold in the day.

TS, want to know whats the reason for you to be a driver lol. are the fringe benefits good?

eh double decker u driving 76 ah?

This week is really an unlucky week for me. Friday was the THIRD time this week i met a pri*k passenger who scolded me when i wasnt at fault at all.

This time it was some fat ugly young guy, around my age or younger. As many of us know, in places like orchard road or shenton way etc, there are some bus stops that need not be stopped by some services. Realising that i skipped this particular bus stop, he came to me and said,

"Why just now that bus stop never stop"

I said, "just now that bus stop dont have"

"What dont have?! Why you never stop?!" he said.

I told him, "that bus stop dont need to stop"

What he replied after i said this is enough to spoil anyone's day.

"What dont need to stop. I everytime take this bus okay. U BULLSHIT"

I just kept quiet. When i stopped the bus, i turned n stare at him, he never look at me, keep facing the entrance door. I stared all the way until he disappears from my sight.

This pri*k actually has the cheek to CHALLENGE someone who DRIVES the route EVERYDAY.

By the way, the bus stop i skipped is just 1 minute walk away from the next bus stop.

And if the pri*k himself is reading this, u owe me an APOLOGY. U being born ugly is not my fault, dont anyhow scold pple.

Sorry for the caps bros. Really angry now.

I remember the VS stop at Marine Parade need not be called by buses other than those that loop at Siglap. So, 196, 197, 31, etc. won't stop there.

Some BCs would unofficially allow boarding/alighting at that stop though ( I remember 196, and that time there was no AVLS, so no automatic fare stage updating. so can tap at the fare stage of the stop before that)

now they have made that stop to include all services. probably due to complaints by those who feel that stop should not be skipped. but the previous stop is not very far away - probably the reason it was skipped intially, just like how some alternate stops are skipped along Orchard Rd etc.

There is way to play them though. Since they are unreasonable, then you shall follow ALL LAWS, 50km/h on the roads, 30km/h near junctions and 20km/h entering bus stop. but you'll sure lambat until very jia lat. If more BCs do that, their service frequency will sure die. If the routemaster were to question you again, you said that he was the one who told you to stop at all bus stops REGARDLESS of whether there are any people at the bus stop and therefore messing up the frequency, think he might want to take back his words. For sure, such actions will sure make them lengthen the runtime for the service, which will sure be irritating by commuters, especially those rushing. Law by law, you won't be at fault, but make sure that they're disadvantaged by your law by law actions.

IMO, it's like a cycle among the government, company and commuters.

1) LTA: Safety rules, encourage people to take public transport
2) SBST: Apply safety rules and lenghten runtime, therefore, slow journey
3) Commuters: Complain that the journey is very slow, they rather they drive.
4) LTA: Try to pursue those pax to continue public transport
etc

Whatever it is, looks like they are failing themselves. Car, expensive. Trains aren't too comfortable too ride on. Bus too slow. Leave cycling and walking out. Are they training our patience? I won't be surprised to see crazy people outside there telling people about politics like what I experienced on 490U, Sv52.

It's SAF culture. Once something happens, everything is down to the letter and everything screws up.

sgbuses SG

Yahx, she is demanded. But passengers have the right to ask for BC 2 adjust whole ac as BC is meant 2 serve ppl wit comfortability. If he nvr did so, I tink she might complain about it. As long as all of passengers do not piss off by her 'behaviour' can alr.

Strong air conditioning can make mi get veri cold & flu, if worse. Took all of OAC buses at night, felt veri freezy.

Best excuse - A/C auto-climate cannot adjust. Corp Comms announced it publicly before, so just let her suck thumb.

Though occasionally it's not the A/C that is at fault. The first OC Batch II I boarded the first time, I saw missing screws and the A/C cover partially open (though not obvious) - the temp sensor went crazy and the priority seats were just freezing. Not sure if the SL I told manage to get it fixed though.

Pax throw things at bus? Haha now our own countrymen not only lost their graciousness, they lost their ability of politeness also! Don't tell me we are about to lose our ability to shit, I sure will be sad.

One time that I encountered someone who threw things at a bus was on s857, when a large sized man refused to pay after boarding. When the service leader called OCC, the man alighted and kept shouting vulgarities at the SL. When the SL kept talking to the mike and the man kept shouting, the man suddenly grabbed a circular thing (ball?) from his bag and threw it against the window, then used his hand to pound on the window loudly. At last the man gave up, doors were closed and the bus moved off.
