Kuo-Kuang Motor Transportation ({{zh|t=國光客運}}) is a bus company in Taiwan.

History

Kuo-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]

Incidents

On 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]
