The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration announced Friday, Nov. 5, that it has placed Mid-Florida Extraditions of Melbourne, Fla., out-of-service and fined the company $2,170 for violating hours-of-service and insurance requirements. The agency also has placed Pegasso Caballero Tours of Houston out-of-service and fined the company $1,470 for violating vehicle maintenance requirements.
FMCSA says both commercial bus companies must pay the entire civil penalty and take correction action to show they are in compliance with federal safety regulations before they can resume operations.
