Bill > S03401

This bill requires all bus (motor carrier) companies to publicly display specific safety and performance information either on their websites or at ticket sales locations. The bill mandates that companies must post details from the federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's website, including their U.S. Department of Transportation identification number, on-road performance percentile, summary of activities, inspection history, and a summary of violations. If a company does not have a website, they must conspicuously display this information at each ticket sales location. Companies are required to update this information at least once every three months. The goal appears to be increasing transparency and providing consumers with readily accessible safety information about bus companies. The law will take effect 180 days after it becomes official, giving companies time to implement the new requirements. This transparency measure allows potential passengers to make more informed decisions about which bus companies they choose to travel with by providing easy access to the carriers' safety and performance records.
