It happened to me just today while riding 161. Apparently, I miss a Volvo B9TL on 161, but only a minute later, a Volvo B10TL came and guess what: It's on 161 and it was off-peak! I rode it and the B9TL infront of me. The B10TL only took 4 passengers, while the B9TL took 40-50 passengers. It was like racing. The B9TL was ahead from Woodlands Interchange till Sengkang when my bus(B10TL) overtook it. We stopped at another busstop and the B9TL took over. The B10TL beaten the B9TL at Compass Point Busstop and there was this straight that B10TL and B9TL were racing eachother till the disadvantage of the B9TL for taking more passengers kicked in and lost to the B10TL. Both buses reached the Interchange together with the B10TL in front and then the B9TL behind. The B9TL went off-service afterwards. Shocked I got some pics of the action and will post it on my Yahoo! Photo Gallery.

Wondering wheter some of you guys witnesed buses race each other 'legally'?

TIB1049L SG

911 very frequent, 900 not so frequent

Every morning will see TIB525K and another rigid (normally perm) bunching up at every bus stop, and 900 got see TIB1139K (cameo) bunch up TIB1049L before

147 does that everyday regardless of peak and non-peak

jetabt767400 SG

Hmm, wait till you see the 'convoy' made up by three svc 189 buses, two bendies and one rigid, and two of them are BCs who like to race so much that they can push until 60km/h on the small stretch on East Ave 6... (and the other who don't race still can keep up)...
Or maybe the peak hours, yeah, svc 147, waited for twenty minutes and four buses came together, heehee...

Y_Shun SG

Try 74 in the morning or evenings.

i saw 3 no. 74 buses arrive one after another in the Ngee Ann bus stop during peak hours.

Then another 74 came like 2-3 mins later after they left.
