Federal Government Revokes Fung Wah Bus Service License

The Department of Transportation has revoked the operating license of the Fung Wah discount bus service between New York and Boston, saying the company stopped cooperating with federal safety inspectors.

Fung Wah shut down earlier in the week after it was barred from operating out of Boston's South Station bus terminal. That came a day after the company's entire 28-bus fleet was pulled off the road after Massachusetts inspectors found various problems, including cracked frames.

The U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration said Fung Wah stopped cooperating with safety investigators Friday. It said the company also blocked further access to their safety records.

No one answered at a New York number for Fung Wah and it was not possible to leave a message.
