The United Motorcoach Association (UMA) held a successful annual Fly-In event, meeting with federal legislators to advocate for the Bus Parity and Clarity Act. This proposed legislation aims to ensure that motorcoaches receive similar toll treatment as public transport. Additionally, the UMA discussed preserving the current charter service rule, deemed vital for the industry’s viability. UMA leaders stressed that motorcoach companies may overpay in tolls without this legislative clarity, emphasizing the urgent need for policy implementation that aligns with congressional intent.
Hundreds of appointments were conducted with federal legislators, representing nearly every corner in the U.S., making it an opportune time to visit Congress.
Motorcoach companies are likely spending thousands of dollars in tolls they are not required to pay, highlighting the need for legislative clarification.
The UMA group emphasized the importance of preserving the existing charter service rule for the survival of the motorcoach industry.
The Bus Parity and Clarity Act aims for equal treatment of motorcoaches and public transits regarding toll charges on highways across the country.
