Nope, not always true. Looking at the arrival timing...
Not bias stand, but SBS Transit is also not reliable. I can say that for SMRT, the reliability is rather up/down type, and most of the time, it's always the major svc that's causing the problem. You can say it's 70% unreliable, 30% reliable(average).
For SBS Transit, it's also the same. However, it's mostly the minor svc and a few major svc. Few major svc like 161, 27, 74 etc. often have the problem. It's rather 60% unreliable, 40% reliable(average).
As for the bus maintenace, I would say none of the operators really provide at least half of the quality. We have aircon faulty, damage seats(basically handle, but rather less), unscrew bells, dirts and algae all around, and even water stored in the bus(those double decks especially).
*Major : Trunks etc.
*Minor : Feeder/Intra-town
