On the bus 186 to work today, I noticed the Transit (yesh SBS is passe my dears) bus driver attempting this turn at Queensway with just one hand. It's no joke turn that big steering wheel and huffing and puffing in order to pull off the difficult manouvere of turning the bus a full left turn... The reason why he could only use one hand...?

He was digging his nose with his left.

Damn shiok doing it too. Bloody dug to Siberia the way he was poking up his nostril!

Now now, lest u think I like looking out for these things, I must point out a fact about buses..

All bus drivers take note...

There are 2 (sometimes 3) mirrors at the front of the bus in order for you see the passengers getting off the rear door.I must enlighten you that the laws of physics dictate those you can see in the mirror can also see you. Yes they can see you. Einstein said so. Or whoever invented that angle of incidence = angle of reflection rule. The point is they can. All the passngers can. Except the ah pek sleeping in the back row. And the auntie who's too hiao to wear her specs. Everyone can see you dig.

So please. Do NOT search for your black gold when you are driving. You can do it in the interchange canteen with your mates or better still the privacy of the toilet. But no the front of the bus does not mean no one sees you. So please adjust accordingly.

We will be watching you.

Literally.

Thank you.

This has been a public service announcement for all transit, smrt, busplus and various chap-pa-lang bus drivers.


On a personal note though..
It's Friday!! Woohoo!
