Collapsing Seats (aka Irisbus Rider's curse)

Anyway, while having my daily ride to school on board 378 driving down Lathalian st a set of seats that two people were sitting on just fell off it's mounting with a huge crash. No one was injured and the driver pulled over and cursed 'modern technology' lols were had.

Are they the ones near Cohen Street?

It could of at least waited until the end of the month to fall apart.

I believe it was on board 378, as he said.

Ha ha, yeah, thats pretty funny. I always cringe when an extremely obese passenger sits on the fold up wheelchair seats, expecting the seats to snap off the wall

It wasn't one of the fold up seats, it was a set of two seats about 3 up from the back.

Yeah, I know, I was generally speaking about seats breaking.

Now lets not revive the 113 experience

My mistake & that is sad that it was a MAN bus that is barely a year old. What happened with 113?

Forgot to mention tha Bus 323 has had its speed limit brought up to 100km/h.

John was sitting on the seat of 113 and part of the seat just slid off when the driver braked. This was in September and in December it was still not fixed.
