Safety is of the utmost importance to Hampton Luxury Liner so we are sharing information on the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration Motorcoach Safety Summit which will begin on Friday, September 23, 2011. Motorcoach company owners, drivers, safety advocates, tour operators and elected officials will meet in Washington D.C. to develop recommendations to raise and improve safety throughout the motorcoach industry. Participating in the summit will be Ray La Hood, the Secretary of U.S. Department of Transportation and Anne S. Ferro, administrator at U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier. A series of regional roundtables held in Dallas, TX; Columbus, OH; Anaheim, CA and New York City will provide the information used at the panel discussions and sessions.

Long Island Wine and Spirits Tasting and Tours
If you are planning to visit multiple wineries to enjoy their tastings, what better way to travel than by luxury charter bus? That is just what two bus loads of people did this past Saturday as they joined us for our first Long Island Wine and Spirits Tour and Tastings.
Customers relaxed in the air conditioned coolness and enjoyed breakfast served on board as they enjoyed the scenic route out east. Our tour began at Pindar Vineyards in Peconic. Our customers enjoyed the wine tasting at the spacious bar, did some shopping, then relaxed on the cool front porch or toured the grounds.
Our next stop was Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard in Baiting Hollow. What a beautiful place! Tastings could be enjoyed both indoors and out. The outdoor courtyard had shaded tables and chairs and lunch could be purchased and enjoyed outdoors. Live music was an added bonus! Also available at Baiting Hollow is a tour of their horse rescue. There are many horses to pet and stories to be heard.
The third stop was actually just a quick walk next door to LiV Vodka. This was a unique experience as customers were able to see a vodka distillery and, of course, enjoy a tasting. LiV Vodka has a beautiful outdoor patio with a gorgeous view where you can sit and relax as well.
Feedback from our customers was fantastic! Pictures of the day as well as videos will be posted soon so keep a look out! Also, keep a lookout for future tours and specials!

Stellar Safety for Luxurious Travel
Classic Coach has been an industry leader in safety for many years. We spend about $7,000 per year, per coach on safety related expenses, more than most bus companies in the US. We currently have a Satisfactory safety rating with NYS Dept of Transportation and US Dept of Transportation.
Also, we recently received the Safety Leader award by the United Motorcoach Association and have received other industry safety awards in the past. The award recognizes an individual who is actively engaged in the industry and who has demonstrated achievements for their company and/or industry.
We have a strong driver safety program that includes MPRI simulator training, iDrive event recorders, GPS system, and Mobileview interior camera system installed on our entire fleet. MobileView is an interior camera system that provides real time on-demand viewing into each motorcoach allowing operations the ability to view what is going on inside the motorcoach at any time from any computer, iPod, iPad, iPhone or any smart phone.
MPRI is a leader in vehicle-simulation products, services and education. They have successfully trained thousands of drivers in transportation, emergency responder, novice driver, and the military. MPRI allows us to prepare drivers for the real experiences every motorcoach driver could encounter on the road.
The idrive system is a professional event data recorder system for vehicles which can capture high definition videos, both of the front of the vehicle and the interior, using a dual camera device and records when an event occurs, including: accidents, aggressive driving behavior, door open event or panic. The idrive system reduces the frequency and the severity of unsafe driving behaviors and will objectively report the truth as to what actually happened when the accident occurred.
Our drivers are carefully chosen for their professionalism and customer service. We train our drivers to uphold the high level of safety we demand. Rest assured, our passengers can relax and enjoy the luxurious experience of traveling safely with Classic Coach and Hampton Luxury Liner.
