took bus number 123 to hotel miramar for dinner yesterday and got up the bus from the bus stop in front of the thai embassy. an incident happened that made me realise how ugly singaporeans are.

the bus was behind another and had not stopped to pick up any passengers. so the front one does so and clears the bus lane, right? the one behind follows closely and stops within the bay to pick up passengers. all of a sudden this small car cuts from the outer lane into the bus lane, which at that time of 7 pm is restricted to buses only. the driver, a she who proclaims herself a prison officer, stops in the bus lane and gets out to quarrel with the bus driver for god knows what reason. the bus driver was a retired policeman, and quite obviously driving at such a slow speed in the bus lane to stop right at the bus stop would not make him the cause of the accident. so guess who was the one at fault? and the same person started quarrelling as well. we all stood up for the bus driver, all the passengers. what a bitch of a woman wanting to just keep quarrelling and quarreling, even accused the bus driving of shouting and being rude when (a) she is doing the same and (b) the bus driver has to keep to a schedule, has only 20 min for a dinner he has not yet eaten and the woman is delaying him and all of us. which brings us to the point of how ugly, unreasonable and unsympathetic some singaporeans are. from what i see, as the bus stop was in front of a traffic light, she obviously tried to beat the light and slice in front of the bus to enter a left turn lane just slightly further ahead. lousy, reckless driver and still trying to claim the bus driver caused the incident. who wouldn't be pissed? and there was no damage to her car even from what i saw.

just to say this out of justice. i support you mr ramesh, driver of bus service no 123, sbs 1942 b who stopped at that bus stop at 1910 hours yesterday. i as well as the gentleman who spoke up for you will definitely send in reedback to sbs to prevent you pay from being docked by that bitch's complaint.
