QUOTE(darosha @ Aug 21 2013, 08:45 PM) yup mcm perang oo kenapa najib tak take firm and strong action against all these buses company? modify bus speed limit for a bus, mechanically, pun letak 90km/hour. that is damn fast for a bus. itu driver pun mcm just letak batu kat pedal minyak and go to sleep the point is that, they shouldn't publish internationally, may be it is not the intention of the government, maybe the goverment din't want to publish it throughout the whole world.. but it can also be the fault of the community, maybe community so keh-poh go and publish on facebook walls... and who knows some amo-lang read it and news spread... not sure lah if can like that.. but i think everyone is at fault as long as they are publishers..

There was once i took the bus express from Penang to KL.
Bus got problem, turned into Ipoh for repairs.
Driver told me that due to our country's policy, those bus company owners have to lease the bus from bus owners ( must be Bumi n crony related that kind of thing), so the bus never undergo any service or maintenance until the bus breaks down. So if the cost is high, bus company runs the bus non-stop because rental per month is the same. Maintenance is provided by bus owner.
Then bus drivers are poorly paid (as the license holders earns the most), so the drivers pula can drive up to 16 to 20 hours a day (PG <=> SG 2 ways)
so if you sit behind the driver, please take good care of him, remember your life is in his hands

I thought Genting downhill section have runoff areas for you to crash into instead of rolling down mountain.

QUOTE(xcess @ Aug 21 2013, 08:45 PM) should be genting bus.. design seems similar: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Looks like the same type of bus. QUOTE(RattleSnaKe @ Aug 21 2013, 08:52 PM) I thought Genting downhill section have runoff areas for you to crash into instead of rolling down mountain. Well if you look at TS's pictures, the bus must have crash just after the run off area.
