Good bus driver


Went Sheng Siong for grocery with YC just now. On our way back, we took #51 SBS bus from Ginza. I think the bus plat number was "SBS 7366A", or something.

What so special about the bus?

Well the bus driver is super nice. He helped a physically disabled old lady down at the bus stop opposite Ginza. The old lady was on an automated wheel chair and she was having difficulty to reverse down the bus via the small platform connected between the bus and bus-stop. The bus driver slowly guided her without showing any sign of impatient on his face.

Then along the way, whenever there are elderly aboard the bus, he will make sure that they sit down properly before he gently drive off.

Me and YC looked at each other, nodded and smiled.

Compared to previous experiences of taking public transport, where the drivers doesn't even care whether the passengers found their place or not, they will just dash off after you scanned your card. Erm, I'm not saying he should wait for people to find their sit, bus at least drive off gently mar... most of the time, we lost balance due to the sudden move. Imagine if its those elderly? The might even fell of their feet.

Anyway, the driver that we met just now simply brighten up my day. Glad that there are still super good drivers around.

Thumbs up! :)
