Atlantic Coast Trailways is a certified carrier for the U.S. Department of Defense. This certification is only awarded to companies that meet the highest standards for safety and operational compliance.
All Trailways member-companies are required to possess the US Department of Defense (DOD) Safety designation. This designation guarantees that each Trailways company participates in the North American transportation industry’s most stringent annual onsite safety inspection and audit, which is implemented by the US DOD. This annual inspection carefully audits all areas of a company’s safe passenger transport service, including the company’s day-to-day operational practices, equipment maintenance, and ongoing driver education, drug-testing, and training.
As a matter of fact, there are over 3,800 registered motorcoach operators listed with the Departments of Transportation throughout North America; and of that number, only 459 possess this DOD safety designation. The entire Trailways system of operators is among those four hundred plus motorcoach companies having achieved this level of “operational safety” certified by the US Department of Defense.
Did you know that motorcoaches offer the most fuel efficient way to travel?
One single coach can replace up to 55 cars on the highway.
And it is up 84% more fuel efficient than a passenger in a hybrid car - with up to 184 passenger miles per gallon.
So get on the bus! It's time to make a change.
