If that had been a european/irizar/chinese built vehicle, it would have been a pile of ashes in less than 3 minutes. Apart from having no structural integrity should a collision occur, fibreglass is a petro-chemical product and a fire accelerant. North American Coaches also have each window as a hinged emergency exit. A total of 17 exits: 2 hatches, 1 front door & 14 windows. euro & chinese trash expect you to smash open the windows with a hammer!!!

This is proof that Greyhound is overusing their buses. They have a MASSIVE fleet of equipment, and yet they choose to continue running the hell out of those buses while scores of idle buses just sit in terminals across the country, collecting dust... SMH

Scary. Just another reminder how slow our human evolution is. (No fault of the driver's btw ^^)

Take care of your passengers not the bus! We can buy buses but not life of the people! They are everywhere but safe place beside of the highway and a burning bus! Kill the fire is the fire department's job!

Our breaks stopped working for us once leaving Tulsa, OK. but their was smoke coming out of the back too like this bus. It's happened on two different trips. There was a different occation where the buss stopped for no reason then cops came out of nowhere and made us get out. They had dogs searching the bus. Another in Ontario Ca we had to get off the freeway cause a metal pipe went through the windshield. The bus driver thought he had gotten shot...LOL...he wasn't the nicest driver.
