'He made us all scared': Passengers allegedly scolded by bus driver for bringing fried chicken on vehicle

A few passengers were upset when they were reportedly informed that bringing take-out food on board a public bus was not allowed. A Stomp contributor shared she boarded bus service 293 along Tampines Avenue 3 on April 27 at about 8pm. «I carried takeaway fried chicken in a box that was packed in plastic bags but the SBS Transit bus driver said I could not bring it into the bus unless I kept it in a zipped-up bag,» she said. Many passengers bring food on board public transport with the understanding that they should not eat or drink in buses or trains. However, this was the first time she had been told such a rule existed: «I didn't know we cannot bring takeaway food onto buses anymore.» According to the Stomp contributor, another passenger carrying Arnold's fried chicken was also shouted at for bringing food on board.

Taxi ends up on bonnet of car following multi-vehicle collision on PIE

SINGAPORE - Three people were taken to the hospital following a chain collision on the PIE early on May 22. The police said they were alerted to the accident, which involved three cars and a taxi, on PIE towards Changi Airport at 1.55am. A 54-year-old male car driver, a 63-year-old male taxi driver and his 40-year-old male passenger were conscious when they were taken to the hospital, they added. The Singapore Civil Defence Force said the three were taken to Tan Tock Seng Hospital. Photos of the aftermath of the accident posted on Facebook group “Singapore roads accident.com” show a Comfort Delgro taxi caught between a dark-coloured sedan and a light-coloured car. The dark-coloured sedan appears to have been rear-ended by the taxi, whose rear half is resting on the bonnet of the car behind it. In a video of the incident, posted by user Shafie Sham in the comment section of the post, the two right-most lanes of the three-lane expressway are seen to be closed off. At least one ambulance can be seen in the video. The Straits Times has contacted Comfort Delgro for more information. Police investigations are ongoing.
