,any moves by SMRT aso seriously wrong!
for example have those buses on tow two carriages. takes up lots
of space on the road, difficut to manuarve, and worse only have a
few sits expect people to stand on the spacious flooring ahr?!
SBS - the aircon double decker buses bottom area also manyempty
spaces. and worse during morning peak period you see many single
deck ones crampped to the core on the road, then during afternoons
off peackperiods many dounble decker ones roam the streets like
waiuting to pick ghosts up! during monring peak house should
utilize all teh double deckers, afternoon off peak deploy the od
cheaper single decks! have drivers trained t drive both type of
buses! why doaway with the older single decks? all new buses nic
nice for show only then add all teh oeprating maintenance costs to
our fares!
now give free rides - later take back icrease fares again!?
really fook you man!
you are wrong.... you must understand why you see DD
during afternoon (off peak)..
lots of DDs are plying on the road during am peak (6am to 9am)
and pm peak..(5pm-8pm). the reasons that u saw them at 2pm to 5pm
is that the driver need to clock at least 7-8 hours of
driving....... or else, it is really a waste of money to buy S$500
000 bus just to do one trip of 2 hours in the am peak and then
another trip of 2 hours in the pm peak? total 4 hours? so how much
you want to pay the bus driver?
during am peak, of course all the buses are cramped. everyone
going to work/school at same time. (6-8am)... for pm peak, ppl
might stay back for work and school dismiss at different timing, so
the crowds are lesser...
