Smart-Aleck BC On S24 SBS180P

carbikebus SG

I together with my wife,2 kids,1 niece age 11 and my mum board this bus @ Sims Ave opp Eunos Stn.1st my niece tap her card,My 1st daughter whos ezlink with my wife and me together with the 2 years old daughter which i carry board the bus when the BC talked in a sarcastic manner “Hallo the gal need to pay you know,Not free you know” so i told him behind my wife will tap for her too.So this stupid BC keeps on thinking that my 1st daughter who is 6 years old never tap her card.Upon reaching Kembangan Stn he repeat according to law your daughter must pay.Thats when the time my wife was so pissed off and told him she did tap for her and said “I would not argue for a pathetic 55 cents pls” and the BC say Thank You and keeps on repeating the law.Thats when the time i barged in and say i’m a bus driver too and he need not have to repeat all over again.Again paiseh but reluctant to apologised he just keep on saying Thank You.Now i knew the reason why many BC was beaten by passengers.From my experience in service line we sometimes have to be flexible in order to survive.From his style of jerky driving/stopping i can sense thats he’s new in this line.Hopes this will be a good lesson for him

some BCs (esp SBST) stubbornly follow rules to the dot (usually those bad att. ones). but some BCs told me that even though its a “policy” to check pass if students paying cash, confiscate the pass etc., they dont really follow it (usually the frendlier ones).

Ya man,If the passenger insist on paying cash why the BC must die die confiscate?Just to get a point from their route group?

I remembered on 2005 when I rode a DAF on 925 and I accidentally dropped $1 in the coinbox while looking for the 55 cents. The BC could not do anything but drop the $1 in. I ended up paying 45 cents more but it's ok, as long as I got my ride home. Smile

Confiscating a card (not expired, not stolen) just because the student chooses to pay cash?

That's just wrong. If he/she pays the required cash amt, what's wrong.

carbikebus SG

Thats why i really dun understand why they(Most SBST BCs) si bei on one sia

LazerLordz SG

If the card has not expired, it is beyond the rules and regulations I feel.

Do bus drivers get incentives if they really check if people pay the correct fare for their desired destinations?
