An SMRT bus captain who was lauded for performing his duties with a personal touch and going the extra mile has opened up to Stomp about his job.

Facebook user Lee Yue Heng had commended the bus driver in a post on March 3 and said: “He drives Bus 187 in the morning and reaches my stop in Bukit Batok at around 7am.”

Lee, a teacher at Crest Secondary School, said that the bus captain not only greets everyone who boards his bus, but makes small talk with passengers during the journey too.

Lee also cited an incident where he noticed an elderly man with a cane walking slowly towards the bus and told the bus captain to wait for the man.

“My request was not necessary,” recounted Lee.

“‘That is my regular,'” the bus captain said. He was not going to leave without his regular.”

Not only does the bus captain drive in a “safe and steady” manner, he also watches out for everyone on board.
