Here at The BusBank, we understand the importance of safety in the motor coach industry. We continue to monitor information provided by the Federal Motor Coach Carrier Safety Administration. This information along with other information such as age of equipment and the performance of an operator on The BusBank chartered trips are some of the information used to determine if an operator can stay part of our operator network. The biggest portion of this is that an operator must be in good standing with the FMCSA.
If you ever have questions about an operator that you book thru The BusBank, we will be happy to provide you with information about this.
We want our customers to have a wonderful and safe bus charter experience. Therefore, we will continue to follow our current methods and will be closely following any changes in regulations or safety improvements by the industry to stay at the forefront of the industry.
