Today at Tampines Int i saw one BC from a svc 3 MKIII cleaning out his bus. Then after awhile i saw him take out 2 regular size cups of 7-Eleven's Slurpy.
It's very common on Service 3.. 'cause a lot of students take it. Take Svc 3 on a normal weekday afternoon and you'll see what I mean; students eating in the bus, leaving the cups, plastic bags etc. behind:[

Maybe the following should be put up on buses:"Eating or drinking is not allowed on buses. Thank you for helping us keep our buses clean for the comfort of all passengers.".

Maybe get the newly hired PRC drivers to record this annoucement. Then can compete with the MRT annoucements to see who has the funniest accent.

There are no speakers on a bus, only the one for bus stopping bell and doors closing bell/buzzer. It would be akward to have annoucements on a bus. However, we can have LEDs on buses to display next stop XXXXX road near blk XXX and also display"Eating or drinking is not allowed on buses. Thank you for helping us keep our buses clean for the comfort of all passengers.".

Service 14 is already having WAB Volvo B9TL buses now. -
Having 75% (of whatever proportion) WAB bus fleet does not mean it is a WAB service. The only official list of WAB bus services is available at http://www.sbstransit.com.sg/doyouknow/facts_wab.aspx.

The two Sv 14 B9TL BC does not allow the PIW to board, cos they say that Sv 14 is not a WAB service yet.. -

I thought 196 also has lots of students on it. It passes by NUS High, all those Dover Rd schools, etc. So why is the problem so rampant on 3? -
