We urge local bar owners to throw their financial support, along with their vocal support, behind this program, as they should take a large measure of the responsibility for keeping their patrons out of their cars after they have been drinking. People who criticize the Gus Bus program should look at the alternatives available. There are none. The return of the Gus Bus is a step in the right direction on curbing alcohol-related accidents and a positive step in promoting responsible drinking.

In my opinion, it (Gus Bus) was the most popular program implerµented since I've been in college.
