That piece of shit luggage is taking up one more space that another person can take up. Did this shit skin pay for the extra space taken up?

 

[Buckethead]

What's wrong with that ?...isn't that a common sight for people taking mrt towards changi airport...there's no sign board that say you can't
bring...personally I dislike those that carry backpack on their back while standing in a crowded bus/mrt...

 

[SgGoneWrong]

Wendy, don't be like that, I also got brought luggage onto bus from airport. Taxi fare not cheap to all, pls be understanding.

 

[eatshitndie]

buses act as alternatives and connectors to the mrt in bringing passenger from airport to nearest bus stop at residential address, and vice versa. luggages are perfectly ok to go on buses. i do that sometimes on bus no. 42 out of the mrt station near siglap, as there's no station in the heart of siglap.

safety reasons: ram against a luggage vs a folding bike, ease to secure in position

Yes, safety is their main concern. Not sure if the following guidelines are still relevant :

LTA GENERAL GUIDELINES

Cyclists are responsible for the safe carriage of their foldable bicycles and must stay in the vicinity of their foldable bicycles at all times.

Foldable bicycles should be FOLDED AT ALL TIMES in the MRT/ LRT stations, bus interchanges/ terminals and on trains and buses.

Foldable bicycles should not exceed 114cm by 64 cm by 36 cm when folded.

The wheels of the foldable bicycles should be wrapped up if they are dirty or wet.

Protruding parts likely to cause injury or dirty/ damage property should be covered up.

Foldable bicycles should not block the aisles and doors or impede commuters’ movement at any time.

Foldable bicycles should be carried in an upright position.

When travelling by train, cyclists should use the first or last car, which is usually less crowded.

Cyclists should use the lifts and wide fare gates at MRT/ LRT stations where these are available.

Foldable bicycles are not allowed on the upper deck of a bus or on the staircase leading to the upper deck. Only one foldable bicycle is allowed on each bus at any one time.

SMRT/ SBS Transit station staff and bus drivers may disallow foldable bicycles if the actual situation within an MRT/ LRT station, bus interchange/ terminal or on board a train/ bus does not permit foldable bicycles to be admitted safely and without inconveniencing other commuters.

Cyclists of foldable bicycles may approach SMRT/ SBS Transit staff if they require any assistance.
