Metadata Updated: December 7, 2023

The SaferBus API is a RESTful service API provided by FMCSA for the purpose of making available, the safety performance data of U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) registered bus companies. The primary goal is to encourage the development of products, tools or services that can help consumers more easily check the safety record of bus companies to avoid those that have been placed out of service or those that do not have the proper operating authority.
