  Rubbish???

  Can't understand the meaning of messy and dangerous??? Let me explain to you people in case your brains can't open up and think.

  Messy - long messy queues that clogs and jams the boarding and alighting berths of Yishun interchange, causing BCs to honk at them and blocking their way to move from the berth. Long queues cause bus jams. Another mess is the parking of these buses, from the long parking lots of these buses to the kerbs around the bus interchanges. Thus because the lack of spaces in the bus interchange, these buses just park anywhere by the kerb side, sometimes even blocking the way of other buses.

  Dangerous - the long parking lots facing the AC7, 171 and 812 berth is pretty dangerous. Just because to accomodate the lenght of these buses, the lots have to design in this way. It's dangerous given the risk that if one day a BC accidentially steps the accelerator too much, imagine the impact of the crash into the interchange's berth and how many people will be hurt.

  Can't even think what is actually happening but only disillusioned by your blinded love, please don't spread your rubbish here.

  Cant help you now, no one will be as foolish as you by giving all sorts of explanation just to win the battle. Anyway, its not only Singapore which have bendies anyway, you dun have to bring in the London example, there's nothing amazing about it.

  If you really hate bendies so much to the extent that you stopped boarding them at all, I dun think this will benefit you at all.

  You are already running out of explanations to argue that bendies are bad. Come on, just forget it. You are just wasting your own time and no one at least in this fan club will even bother to care or even agree.

  Dont ask me why I choose not to retaliate your argument but I just think there are other things better to do than this just to win face.

  For the millionth time,this is not a discussion thread so scram,post your opinions somewhere else. Hope you understand English. 

  "don't spread your rubbish here." Hmm interesting 1. He's not posting rubbish 2. He should post here 3.You are the one who shouldn't be posting here.

  So,continue this argument like the immovable object that you are or you can do yourself a favour and leave

  SBS1000U if you were to notice it you are the only one trying to retaliate us so violently.

  855 bendies have become more frequent nowadays, probably due to the peak hour loading!!!

  SMRT will deploy them when they realize the need to, everyone will be happy except for SBS1000U of course.

  Solaris Urbino 18, low floor 18m articulated bus but currently I've only seen this kind of buses with doors on the right side.

  If Singapore were to buy these buses, they will become the first Solaris buses with doors on the left side.

  Quite unlikely since SG didn't have much connection with Solaris. Only MAN, Mercedes, Volvo and Wright have chances.

  Solaris,Irisbus,MAZ all got no history in ASEAN so it will be hard to persuade them.The closest i can think is Optare.MAN NG 360 chassis will be good enough with variant of bodywork and gearbox.

  True, SMRT has never purchased any Volvo Buses.

  I hope for Citaro G and Man Lion City G.

  Citaro Gs should replace the MK1 and MK2 bendies, while MAN Lion City G should be brought in at a later time to replace the habits and volgren bendies.
