Then go back home early, take 97.

CannyOng SG

Take bike like me

24/7 no restriction.

no queue no waits

Start and go

Every 34 km is $2.20 (ERP not included)

Accident not your fault confirm full claims....in some case, payout goes to your next of kin

Yr bike free one is it? Every year u no need insurance and road tax one? Yr tyre every 2 years or 1 and half year never change one, is it?

U every few month no need top up spark plug, black oil and service one?

If u encounter breakdown, call a toll service $60 liao..

It not just $2.2 every 34km, ok?

FireIce SG

considering since the start of NR services no increase until now, this one still ok lah
but i think not fair leh
NR6 always mua mua, sometimes 俺 gotta stand leh
i think NR6 biz is good
so NR6 shd remain $3

increase for those tt are lang lang, bo lang one

sinicker SG

lang lang, bo lang ones are those when they have 20+ NR services!!!

that one really empty one.

JJxJJ SG

knn... might as well walk home if i'm hanging out ard town area at night...at most will take 1h30min

MS SG

from $3.00 to $3.50 for both EZ-link and Cash.

Saw the poster at Yishun Interchange.

Let's switch over to SBST Niteowl?

let's switch to personal transport.

How about motorcycle? A cheap scooter measures cheaper than public transport on the long run. And of course don't mention the unlimited mobility you have with it if you're able to take in account the risks on a motorcycle.

choww SG

$3.50 vs 50% taxi surcharge

which is cheaper?

off_service SG

let's switch to personal transport.

We need to get some facts right here:

1. Many members here are younger than legal age to drive.

2. Night bus services are made to cater (mostly) to those who went clubbing.

3. Reminder from police, "If you drink, don't drive. Go public".

SBS3688Y SG

i’d stick to 6N is cheaper and faster than NR6 for me. 6N is running along CTE express and fare difference of $1.00! ($2.50 for SBST and $3.50 for SMRT)

Then I think it is better to get a licence when you hit the legal age. The public transport cannot be a solution as your permanent transportation. Many people who have relied on public transport and switched to personal transport have all come to one conclusion that they will give up public transport for a personal transport but never the other way round unless the costs were out of their reach.

And of course unless you're intending to drink then the bus/taxi is always the only resort you can turn to.

With no disrespect to you but have you thought of this scenario? If more of us switch to personal transport, the heavier the traffic will be especially in town areas. Furthermore, Singapore is just an island and public transports are made convenient for all of us Singaporeans. They are already encouraging us to take the public transport instread of driving to town area to make the traffic situation worsen. I don't see anything wrong why we should continue to rely on the public transport. We can not only save money but enjoy our bus rides as well.

It's nice to own your car or motorcycle but with rising fuel and maintainance to consider, I rather use this extra money for holidays.

pls pls, no arguement.. U can PM him if u want to continue.

FireIce SG

eh... i think some ppl 搞不清楚状况........

public trpt shd be for the masses... as affordable as possible
personal trpt is luxury... oni for those who can afford it

but in SG, the situation is not so
personal trpt becomes more and more affordable
but public trpt more and more expensive
but there is still this gap in the middle
those tt can't afford personal trpt but oso feeling the pressure of rising costs of public trpt
then how?

and why like tt? wat the kuku minister of trpt doing?

off_service SG

That was what the government decided last time. Public for masses, private as luxury. During the economic boom in the mid 1990s, one COE can cost up to $100,000. But when the bidding system was changed to an open system, the COE dropped drastically by almost 10 folds to $10,000 or sometimes even below.

Agree with you. I'm very sick of private vehicles hogging roads and cutting lanes like no one's business. I hope the "true" dedicated bus lane comes into play soon to at least provide really smooth rides at places like Orchard.

Can't understand why some car owners think the road is theirs just because they paid road tax. Every vehicle does, even public buses!

Oceane SG

Yup, agreed.

However do note that some buses also like hogging non-bus lanes. An example is Orchard area whereby bus stops are split up into two and buses have to go out into lanes meant for private cars, sometimes causing near accidents/jams.

jayh272416 SG

Yup, agreed.

You are encouraging the LTA to build 2 bus lanes on such roads lol. Even North Bridge Rd where there are 2 bus stops split, and Ang Mo Kio Ave 3.

No. As much as people on the buses complain that private vehicles are hogging their lanes, people on the cars complain that buses are not sticking to theirs.

It's mutual.

Superbus SG

You are encouraging the LTA to build 2 bus lanes on such roads lol.

I don't see any word or phrase in the post which suggests that.
