A bus captain, posted on his TikTok page @yourbuscaptain, sharing how the coin box inside Singapore buses actually work.
He said that the coi boxes don’t automatically count the money that the commuters put inside when they make cash payment.
He then showed a clip of his bus fare system interface, pointing out the different buttons on it and the examples of fares that range from adult, to elderl to students.
The bus captain then shows the yellow coin box and explains that there is no fancy technology that automatically counts the coins.
He then drops some money into the coin box, as the money then falls into the see-through panel at the bottom, and he said that it is easier for him if the customer pays with notes so that he doesn’t have to count the coins one by one.
