Sparks and Tyre Rims...

Bus 167 pulled into the MacRitchie Reservoir bus-stop at an alarmingly fast speed.

Curving down the road after the traffic junction to make a pit-stop, the Ferrari Bus Driver grabbed hold of the steering wheel, steady as a rock.

But NO! He misjudges the kerb distance, and takes the turn too wide!

BAM! The front left tyre rim struck the concrete kerb, but luckily the bus did not mount the kerb.

Sparks flew out from the grazing metal tyre rim against the cold hard rock of the kerb.

The spectators standing at the bus stop are left in awe at the Amazing Ferrari Bus Driver. I take a jump backwards upon seeing the sparks fly, afraid that the bus would overturn.

The smell of burnt metal filled the air as the wheels of the Ferrari Bus rolled to a halt, making the pit stop.
