wheelchair friendly buses misleading
So now that after the fare increase, SBS still doesn't get the idea straight. This time round is their so call WAB (wheelchair—accessible buses) system that makes wheelchaired person unwelcomed. It was on the papers and even on the internet news. The disabled person on the wheelchair flags down those WAB buses but he isn't allowed to board. Given the explanations from SBS, the routes that the WAB buses plying was not WAB friendly. So why was the buses have that WAB sticker then? It was misleading. SBS reply was that is was for deployment issues. It is ok if WAB buses are being deployed on non-WAB routes. They should remove the sticker. With the fare increment and fines from fare cheats, such simple task of removing stickers should not be an issue. Let's hope now that the story being unleashed, SBS would wake up on such a simple task. It wouldn't take up much time and money to remove stickers.
