Haha. Alright, so I was on Bus A1 on my way back to PGP. A1 and A2 are two bus services plying the same route, in opposite directions. Most of the stops are at the same places, and there is this stop at the Business School that is shared by both services. I hate this stop, because 1. it is too far from the Arts canteen, 2. the bus has to make this huge 'detour' into the carpark - the journey would be greatly shortened if this stop was skipped. It's especially irritating when all the effort is made to get to that little busstop, only to find that noone wants to alight, and noone wants to board!
I digress. Anyway, the bus driver made a big booboo. When he was coming out of the carpark, instead of turning left towards Heng Mui Keng Terrace as Bus A1 should, he started to go straight towards Temasek Hall! With the routes of the two services overlapping at this point, he must have been momentarily confused and thought he was on the A2 route! Then he had to try very hard to reverse the bus out of the Temasek Hall carpark entrance, so that he could resume the A1 route ... Out of the window, I saw this lady nearly sniggering ...
Funny thing is, I'm not surprised it happened and I should expect it to be a fairly often occurance. How come I've only managed to witness it once in two long years?!
