Motorcoach

Distance, comfort and convenience often lead school groups to choose motor coach transportation for activity trips. While these vehicles do not meet the construction standards of school buses, the motor coach industry has a good passenger safety record.

Schools and school groups are well served to be informed about the regulations impacting the motor coach industry in order to make the best safety decisions for their student passengers.
