Must report police
Poh-mata

 

[Truthspeak]

If bus driver shows compassion, he is likely to be replaced by AV soon

 

[ftan42]

driver must be a FT

Bua driver did the right thing, adhere to accountabilitiy of every cents, hail PAP !

The boy and family has to learn the real world.

You go 7-11, cashier shortchange you $0.30/- how you feel?

School kids should be allowed to board buses for free.

If proven son-of-soil-bumi status, maybe,but aren't you ashamed?

Sinkies are such a bunch of fucktards. I bet if he bus driver found $2 on the street he won’t be turning it in. He will have kept it right? lol

Should go back to using bus passes with stamps. Pay upfront, unlimited rides.

The bus driver did the right thing.
Otherwise, he could be disciplined by his employer
And other passengers would also do the same
Causing the bus company to lose revenue
The bus company then has to increase bus fares to make up for the fare leakage
And passengers have to pay more
And if it is SBS Transit owned by Temasek
The bus company makes less profit
Pays less dividends to Temasek
And the share price of SBS Transit goes up less
And Temasek makes less money from capital gains
And repatriates less money to the government
And the government will have less money to distribute vouchers to Sinkies

Some bus driver should literally kick out a wheelchair-bound passenger instead of wasting time to set up the ramp at the door exit. What a scandal that would be.

Schoolkids don't get auto topup student farecards? After all that brouhaha about SimplyGoooo? Must be done on purpose to nudge them towards getting the monthly concession pass. Nothing on shithole island happens by conincidence.

In Perth, the process is automatic. A ramp will be extended by the press of a button, and the bus driver does not have to move his ass.

I wonder why Singapore has not caught up.

Yes I appreciate this bus driver for protecting my S61 share value. He should get a raise! On second thought, don't do that because that would eat into my dividends.

 

[mojito]

Sounds like a fare cheater. No mercy for the unclean!

 

[eatshitndie]

can use coins to pay the difference on bus. story doesn’t seem right as ez-link card usually has a minimum amount to warn commuter of usability.

Senior Citizen Concession Card $58 per month (unlimited rides) ...

Imagine if that 11-year-old boy was your son. Any Dad would be furious that the driver kicked his son out of the bus when he was rushing to not be late for classes in the morning. He must have been so confused and stressed being chased off that bus while on his way to school.

Ashamed of what. Its gomen CSR. The gomen should be ashamed charging school kids to be brainwashed in their schools.
