For weekdays is bound to be any-rigid rule for WLDEP but for weekends especially Sundays might get a chance to see who perm the S-shift slot.
The perm S201 indian driver takes 564Y on TQ01 on a sunday and on other days he takes random rigid at will. CNY day 1 he took 804E on 178.

- TIB541M with passengers, almost went to exit at 180/184/700/177 at Bt. Panjang Int. Lucky SL managed to reverse a bit and turn right to the correct exit.
- TIB855H rear EXIT doors opened automatically and couldn't close for a while at opposite Bt. Panjang Police Post bus stop. The pneumatic system got jammed, but back to normal after a while.
- TIB1127U spotted heading to WLDEP at 1PM.
- TIB1161U just got restickered SMRT livery at the back.

TIB858A had about the same problem too.
When passenger pressed the bell, it rang once. Then when the doors open, it rang again. When the doors closing, it rang another time. -

Seems like some SMRT buses speed limiter are being messed around with, Took TIB762S on 178 today and surprisingly either the speed limiter is spoilt or being tampered with. Went slightly over 60km/h and no sound came out.
Not trying to complain, but I really wonder how often does LTA conduct checks on speed limiter on SMRT Buses.
speed limiter does not have sound.. They just resist any further acceleration and velocity abv 60kph.Tat said the KUBs can travel to 70kph on downslope bef being tuned back to 60 - 65kph

SBS8617U has a Euro-IV K230UB dashboard although it is a Euro V bus.
Also, its ZF gearbox does not 'cat-howl' when changing from 2nd gear to 3rd even at ~1800r/min.
