Charter Buses & Limo Buses in Chicago

When it comes to bus charters and long-distance trips, renting a motorcoach is one of the safest ideas. It can be challenging to try and choose the ideal method of transportation for you; you can travel by train, take a plane, or drive yourself. To find the best means, you have to consider various factors. Some of these factors include comfort, price, duration, environmental impact, and, most of all, safety. M&M Buses Chicago will show you exactly why renting a bus is safer and better than traveling by car or any other means of transport.

Aviation is currently one of the fastest-growing polluters in the world. If you care about the environment, try to avoid flying as much as you can, as buses have the smallest carbon footprint out of all other means of transport.

 

Comfort

You can go to the bathroom whenever you want or change or switch seats with someone. There is more storage space in the bus as well. You won’t have to get rid of your things like when going to the airport. There’s also internet; you can watch a movie or take a nap. The best part of not flying is – you can ask for a stop anywhere you need.

 

Are motorcoaches safe?

Motorcoaches - Travel by the Bus

The safest way to get from point A to point B is by a motorcoach. Although technically air travel is number one, they are more neck and neck. There’ve been fewer accidents with planes, but the environmental impact planes have on the whole world is enormous. Therefore, motorcoaches can be called the safest ground transportation. The highway can be a pretty dangerous place. Still, with a professional driver at the wheel, all bus passengers are safe. 

There are more than 6 million motor vehicle accidents yearly in the US, in which around 40.000 people tragically lose their lives. 58% of these accidents that resulted in death involved only one vehicle. The most common accidents are side-impact collisions of two vehicles, collisions with a fixed object (such as signs, trees, posts), and rollovers. Most importantly, almost half of the fatal car accidents occur during nighttime. When accidents happen, it’s usually due to a lack of concentration, stress, fatigue, or being under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Speaking of Chicago alone, the numbers are smaller but not less daunting. According to the information from the Chicago Police Department, there were over 100 thousand crashes and 100 fatal accidents from September 2017 to July 2018. That’s an average of 319 accidents every day.
