    Silver Spring, Md.—Every year, private motorcoaches transport about 700 million people in the United States. Ensuring the safety and security of so many passengers–plus thousands of buses and terminals–is a unique challenge, one that security companies in this market must understand if they are to meet their customers' needs.
