Hope everyone inside the Citaro Is okay and can get a speedy recovery since everyone survived

[@imranbecks]

Can't imagine the trauma the passengers going through now after falling from that height whilst inside the bus. I would be traumatised for sure to ride a bus so soon again.

[@shawnandbuses2258]

Hope those people injured a speedy recovery soon. How sad and unfortunate the accident is.

[@fabianlowakaisora2049]

Thank you for your coverage on this incident. Hope everyone recovers soon.

[@MK-qc6tl]

I LOLed at the lifting supervisor (04:15) in shorts and sandals. He probably got called back in urgently during his off day. Respect.

[@glitchFan2428]

I believe a lot of people were activated at the last minute for this. Respect!

What a scary accident! I can't imagine what I had seen if I were at the scene......😱 Hope if everyone gets a speedy recovery 🧑‍⚕️ and R.I.P. to the flipped over Citaro. It looks so badly damaged.....😟

[@StatisticsRepublic]

Everyone inside the Citaro survived

[@HellHunter00]

It might still be economically sound to repair actually. They might opt to deregister it and part it out for the rest of the fleet though.

[@12347873]

What if it is a double deck bus,it will be like falling from second floor high.

[@user-oj4xm6by5b]

@@12347873 Oh dear...... If it was a double deck, I can't imagine what happened at the Bukit Batok interchange. It would be total pandemonium as the DD will block the whole lane if flipped over onto its side.

[@user-oj4xm6by5b]

Do you know they are more likely to tip over due to their high center of gravity?

[@dereksg7510]

Thankfully there wasn't any bus/vehicle on the lower road at the time of the accident. It could have been so much worse. Speedy recovery to the injured. I guess SBS6403H's damage is too extensive to be brought back to service.

[@andyng3666]

I think this bus will be towed to the Mercedes Benz Truck and Bus Service Centre at Pandan Road to be assessed by the service centre first before being towed to the Bodyworks Centre somewhere near Pandan Crescent where the damaged parts( including the doors and glass windows) are dismantled and retrofitted with new parts. After the retrofitting of the new parts, the bus will have to go through rigorous inspection before it can go back to the bus company. Another possibility is that this bus will be assessed and if it is really beyond repair, the bus will be sent to the authorized scrap centre and be scrapped.

[@Harith_Zack]

That looks scary. Hope everyone is ok

[@andrewsitu3472]

Especially the poor SBS BC who got sent flying by the runaway bus.

6329 can be saved but i dun think 6403 can. got reminded of last time where the SBST citaro kena bang outside kent ridge ter & then scrap

[@illusionerx6393]

agreed, i think 6403 may be scrapped earlier than the others, the damage is too much

[@andrewsitu3472]

How did 6145 kena bang?

[@azharjj]

6145 exit from traffic light outside kent ridge ter and incoming trailer beat red light and hit the centre body of the bus. Happened in 2016. There was a video

Tandem lifting using 2 lorry cranes. Wonder if lifting plan is prepared and permit to lift was approved?

[@andyng3666]

Of course the lifting plan and permit are approved or else the authorized personnel can't proceed. To do this, the trained personnel must be flexible in the procedures besides ensuring safety first because they will encounter different situations in which they have to think of other ways.

[@singaporemrtbustransport6745]

It is observed from the video, workers (in orange vests) handling the bus did not bother to wear safety helmets to protect themselves in case something drop down. The company should have known the accident had alrdy happened, and yet the workers or bus company never thought of safety. This is about workplace safety. Hope the authorities can comment.

Wearing green reflective vests amongst green buses is not contrasting. Not wearing hard hats and safety shoes is not acceptable. Now we know railings are the weakest link in crash barriers. Time we stopped drivers from being heavy footed on the throttle and power brakes are no match to turbo/supercharged engines.
