It is a big smokescreen.
If they are competitors, why do these 2 companies work like some
kind of cartel?
BTW, I'm kinda amazed that you guys really care what bus type you
take!
To any average joe like me, we're bloody happy if we get on a bus
and the driver is trained well enough to not make the bus ride a
total nightmare.
Most of the time, it's like they have parkinsons' in the foot.. the
bus driver steps on the accelerator, then eases off then steps on
it again when it slows down.. then repeats.. this causes the bus to
accelerate and decelerate.. making people sick...
Then in Super Buses, and the old double-decked SBS ones without
airconditioning, at the rear of the lower level, it invariably
stinks of burnt oil and rubber.
Now, if such glaring problems are not solved at when there is
"competition", I think it'll get worse when they actually
merge.
Already, like I said, they're working like a cartel.
