HistoryKuo-Kuang was established on July 1, 2001 as a result of the privatization of state-owned Taiwan Motor Transport (臺灣汽車客運公司).[1] After the state-run company announced its intention to close, some 1,090 employees each contributed NT$300,000 in order to raise the funds necessary to purchase the firm's assets and relaunch the service as Kuo-Kuang.[2] As of 2013, the company's fleet comprised more than 1,200 buses.[3] In January 2016, the final Greyhound buses still being used on regular Kuo-Kuang routes were retired.[4] In November that year, Kuo-Kuang's Taipei Main Station location was moved following the demolition of its historic Taipei West Bus Station home.[5] IncidentsOn November 23, 2015, the driver of a Kuo-Kuang bus traveling from Taipei to Taichung pulled over on a freeway after an electrical fire broke out. While the driver and passengers were waiting outside the bus, a truck drove into their vehicle, killing the driver and one passenger and injuring 13 more.[6] On June 2, 2017, a Kuo-Kuang bus heading from Pingtung to Taichung crashed in poor weather, killing one person and injuring 31 others.[7] References1. ^https://ir.nctu.edu.tw/handle/11536/69885 2. ^https://chinapost.nownews.com/20020703-144668 3. ^http://englishnews.ftv.com.tw/read.aspx?sno=48F7E43F8FC71829C8A8D943735A92BA 4. ^http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2016/01/22/2003637797 5. ^http://focustaiwan.tw/topic/eng_forum/17/201611030001.aspx 6. ^http://news.ltn.com.tw/news/society/breakingnews/1518164 7. ^http://news.ltn.com.tw/news/society/breakingnews/2087434 3 : 2001 establishments in Taiwan|Bus transportation in Taiwan|Transport companies established in 2001 |
