One wheelchair user eventually did board the bus, but Sim said he was unable to fold up a stroller as his children were sleeping in them. Fortunately, the wheelchair user, he added, patiently said that he would wait for the next bus. «We were very thankful.

The strollers are parked in the area reserved for strollers and wheelchairs.
