  I love to drive DD on svc 3 for weekends but not for weekdays..Usually the crowds at Pasir Ris would be happy if DD came during peak hours..

  My ideal fleet for svc 3 is 13 SD and 6 DD with 4 operating for full day.

  Weekdays:Am/PM>SD,SD,DD,SD,SD,DD,SD,DD,SD,SD,SD,DD,SD,SD

  Split:SD,SD,DD,SD,DD

  Weekends should be 13 Am/Pm,2 Split and 2 TQ 12 SD 5 DD

  Why don't you like to drive DDs on weekdays? People will be happy if you do.

  Give you a tip: check the bus app. Usually a SD will show yellow as any pax > 25 pax shows yellow for SD. For DD, it would need to have >65 pax to show yellow. Most times if it is green, it would be a DD.

  The postimage.org site is not working for me. After uploading pic, it tells me site is not working.

  Can someone suggest another site to upload pics as user-friendly as the postimage.org site was?

  Thanks.

  Hi mr busanalyser, yes it may have higher probability. However, I don't have the luxury of time during morning peak hours when I rush for work. I still have to contend with possibility of slow traffic along TPE. Normally, when service 3 comes, I board. Just cannot afford to choose SD or DD. Moreover, we all know service 3 has much more SD than DD. If all turn out to be SD, a lot of time is wasted. Cheers. Thanks.

  Also depends where you board. Do you get a place to sit? If yes, then not so much of an issue for you. Does your timing justify for DDs? Are there instances when people are not able to board SD?
