Transportation Trivia & Fun Facts

Test your knowledge about party buses, limousines, and the group transportation industry.

Safety

How can you verify a bus company is legitimate?

Tap to reveal answer

Safety

Search the company's DOT number on the FMCSA's SAFER website (safer.fmcsa.dot.gov) to verify their operating authority, insurance status, safety rating, and inspection history. A legitimate company will proudly share their DOT number. If they hesitate or don't have one, find another operator immediately.

Booking Tip

Should you tip your party bus or limo driver?

Tap to reveal answer

Booking Tip

Yes — the standard gratuity for party bus and limo drivers is 15–20% of the rental cost. Some companies include gratuity in the quoted price, so always check. If the driver goes above and beyond (helps with luggage, accommodates changes, provides great service), tipping on the higher end is appreciated.

Industry

How has the sharing economy affected limousine companies?

Tap to reveal answer

Industry

Rideshare services initially disrupted sedan and town car segments, but they've actually boosted demand for party buses and specialty limos. Customers who use Uber for daily rides still want the unique, shared group experience of a party bus or stretch limo for celebrations. The two markets have become complementary.
