According to the U.S. Department of Transportation and the U.S. Department of Energy, when compared to other forms of transportation, bus travel rates as one of the safest and the greenest forms of transportation available to consumers.
Joe Jacovino, Director of Corporate Accounts for US Coachways pointed out, “Each charter bus can take over 40 vehicles off the road with a safe and non-drinking driver.”
US Coachways can deliver appropriate vehicles anywhere in the United States to accommodate your group. The company has a very strict alcohol consumption policy that complies with the Department of Transportation’s regulation that does not allow underage drinking on its vehicles. In fact, if there is one person under the age of 21 on a vehicle, there can be no alcohol on that vehicle and US Coachways drivers are trained to strictly enforce the law. A driver can be arrested and lose his/her license, if stopped and pulled over by a law enforcement officer and found to be in violation of the regulation.
