This SBS Bus No Need to Flag Early

if every SBS driver is like this uncle who drives Bus 57.

I was running superduper late on the 1st work day of 2007 and this super slow and patient uncle took his own sweet time and stopped at every bus-stop along the way even though it was crystal clear no one was flagging the bus down.

There was this particular bus-stop where all waiting commuters were comfortably seated at the bus-stand and no-one stood up when the bus was nearing the stop, and yet he non-chalantly drove into the driveway and out again without anyone boarding his bus. For the rest of the journey to my office, the bus literally crawled.....

Give me a younger SBS driver anytime, no need F1 standard, but spare me the uncle or grandpa type (and this coming from a not-so-young aunty who won't suffer slow public transport drivers).
