    Apparently, nobody wants to drive for Greyhound otherwise they would have canned him and replaced him with someone else. I know I don't ever want to drive a Greyhound bus.

    Greyhound seems to have a habit of having "tired" drivers

    I spent some 20 years in the bus business, 9 years with Trailways, 5 years driver for a private coach and some 6 years in doing tours and charter work for several small bus companies. But the caliber of bus drivers has gone as with truck drivers today. The training, the rules and policies of some companies, the dress code and plus the fact that the HOS never got changed back in 2004 as they did with truck drivers. A bus driver can actually work 24 hours and never be in violation
