MingFreeman SG For me, they are: 51, 61, 67, 961, 980 These routes are too long and stressful/boring to drive IMO.
Scania N113CRB luver SG 67 ... Route is too long . But if you give me a box bendy , maybe i will drive . 975 . Service moves through rather crowded streets . 172 . Moves thru cemetery and quite a lone service .
TIB1049L SG 925 - very ulu 147 - Too long, but now B9TL so much better than last time 700/700A - Have to squeeze at the CBD Area 922 - Customer will complain why u take so long 178 - Too long, some more if get CAC UD worse still
TrixCereals SG I have taken 30 from Bedok to Boon Lay 5 times and is really sick of it. Appr. 2 hours. Wonders how the driver can take it, who drives the same route everyday.
BusSpeeder SG these are my routes i don't like to drive. 13 - MBO405 and don't really like. 14 - route too long. 51 - same as above. 74 - Buses not really air-con, fully pack, wait passengers, alot of traffic lights. 186 - IMO, i think a mix of MKII and MBO405 WA with Scania NAC doesnt feel ok.
service_238 SG there's zero mk2 now, all have been laid up. In no particular order: 14 30 51 61 67 97 111 133 143 502 518 Basically reason is either the route is too long, journey time too long or the service pose alot of harzards to traffic condition which causes the bus to be late, especially in events of ad-hoc events like erm PC Show, IT Show etc
droco SG Will not want to drive route that pass through through the city especially Chinatown, Little India and Orchard because the road can be really crowded. Will not want to drive route that are feeder, town link and short haul trunk because can get really sick of driving the same old route too many times a day. Will not want to drive route that are long haul trunk because can get tired for spending a long time driving the entire trip. So the conclusion is I will want to drive express or middle haul trunk without passing through the city.
bus555 SG For me: Service 33 (Not famillar with the route) Service 67 (Route too long and lame) Service 80 (Wa lao, jammed along Bugis there sometimes) Service 139 (A confusing Route) Service 851 (Same as Service 80)
Scania N113CRB luver SG Who cares ! Such a short service somemore you get a break after each round , not bad what . 178 - Actually , getting a UD is much better than getting a bendy bus . Some people told me that BC rather drive rigid than bendies is because bendies are stressful to drive thru crowded streets.
iveco SG Svc 30 is semi-express. So what if it is the longest route by fare stage? Any problem with that? I think 51 and 14 are worse. They serve Chinatown and Orchard areas respectively.
iveco SG According to some old thread, feeder route captains don't get much of a break after each trip. They will go for their rest after making about five rounds or so. Best routes to drive are those short-haul roundtrips like 22 and 25.
@:)@ SG I have taken 30 from Boon Lay to Bedok once and Bedok to Boon Lay twice. Exact time: 1hr47min guaranteed.
shinkansen83 SG 975 also a lonely service. move thru ulu ulu road. I sometime take 975 outside Sungei Gedong camp if I book-out early.
SBS9889U SG Sv966 during PM Peak! Jams quite common along PIE (Steven, Lornie, Jln Toa Payoh) and have to loop back, facing similar problems. In the end journey time can get quite long and your leg dont get to rest too often as most of the route is on expressway
SBS9888Y SG 178 92 42 honestly i would like to drive those pack routes...theres a challenge to it 7, 12, 14, 21, 23, 24, 27, 28, 30, 51, 65, 72, 76, 80, 88, 99, 133, 143, 147, 179, 197
SBS2772T SG no feeder routes, so boring any service that use NAC buses not familiar with SMRT routes though routes with heavy traffic are a challenge, but its fine as long as its not a mk2 or scania
