  Passengers tried to help by giving him directions but he insisted on taking instructions from the control centre! Took 2 hours for him to get back to the correct route.

  as he very law by law, most likely nothing will happen to him, besides sbst has always shortage of BCs.

  Maybe the said passenger boarded the bus at the start of the journey (Jurong East) and already spent 45 minutes on the bus before the diversion occured, resulting in the passenger being trapped on the bus for a total of 2 hours?

  Do a U-turn at NUS BTC like 151A does and re-enter Adam Rd/Lornie Rd.
