Now rear seatbelts are a must but how come there's no seatbelts in public transport like bus and LRT?

nope.public transport(but just apply to bus express)got seatbelt just rapid n lrt only didn't have seatbelt.
impossible that those public transport will have seatbelt.
even have seatbelt also the same the accident still will happen cause due to reckless driver.

Not practical on short journeys where ppl are moving in and out.

if bus got accident... with seat belt also die... train also...

but usually small accidents... cars suffer more wherelse bus ntg wrong...

so now backseat have to put on seatbelt?

But planes have seatbelts, although chances of survival are less than bus.

Costing problems.
Public usage easily damage,incur higher maintenance.
Private usage,fullest care.

i used to have this collection of gory bus accident around the world, usually. other than passenger were thrown outside the bus because there were no seatbelt. another main culprit for mass death in bus accident is the weak roof, when the bus got out of control, usually they roll, when the bus roll upside down the roof of the bus give way under the weight of the bus body, engine and etc thus smashing the passenger inside. i think beside adding seatbelts maybe ekspress bus should add roll bar cage to make the upper part of the bus stronger.

definitely agreed. But, who's gonna take the role to voice out all these? end up, only us in LYN tat talk about.
government did nothing to improve this.

propose to bus company... they talk to the government agency...

its gonna cost them some money

people that sit bus and LRT are poor and not important to the country?
