Two unusual happenings on buses...
1. [b]TIB 0779U made three crazy rounds about the bus park
at Bedok North Bus Interchange just now due to the lack of parking.
Worse still, the bus mounted kerb when it finally came out of the
bus park! I saw it at about 1358hrs at Bedok North Bus
Interchange.
2. Two unusual occurences on SBS 2990E.
1. A big family of Malays (about 10 of them) boarded the bus just
before it was about to turn out of the bus stop and onto Bedok
Reservior Road. They were quite noisy and blocking the passageways
which attracted not only my attention, but also other people's
attention.
2. The engine of the bus suddenly went dead before it was turning
out of the bus stop opposite Block 745 of Bedok Reservior Road.
Anxious of getting the breakdown ticket, I made quite a scene by
running from the middle of the bus to the front to see what
happened. But the BC managed to restart the engine soon
after.[/b]
1 - I dont find it unusual.. Itz normal for buses to go round
the interchange for a few times before they can find a parking lot.
It is not surprising to me when Bedok Interchange so much Services
that it could actually can. I think you shld try to venture out of
Bedok.. Wait till you see Hougang and BoonLay.
2 - Unusual ? no comments. A bus is not a library.. Dont expect
people to board the bus and keep quiet. I'm sure you as a student,
when boarding a bus with a group of friends will keep your volume
down.
3 - Kinda normal to me.. Wait till you try a CNG which stalled in
the middle of Pan-Island Expressway. And for god's sake, do behave
yourself. Engine Stalled doesnt mean that there is a breakdown.
