Off-duty SBS Transit bus captain goes the extra mile to help elderly passenger on PMA
A little kindness goes a long way, and one off-duty bus captain proved just that when he stepped up to help an elderly passenger board a bus.
Stomper Lyy witnessed the heartwarming act on Feb 4 at about 2.45pm.
The incident took place on SBS Transit service 963, at the National University Hospital (NUH) bus stop.
Lyy shared with Stomp that an elderly passenger on a mobility scooter was waiting to board the bus when the on-duty bus captain prepared to assist.
However, before he could do so, an off-duty bus captain -- who was also on board -- insisted on helping instead.
"He also assisted in putting down the ramp for the passenger to board the bus," she said.
"I just thought that even a small act of kindness deserves praise.
"I would like to send my compliments to this bus captain."
While it may have been a simple gesture, acts like these make a difference in someone's day.
