It seems to me that terrorists could hijack a greyhound bus and wreak almost as much havoc as they did with an airplane. They could blow it up in a major tunnel or drive it into an elementary school.

I wouldn't mind some security measures being required for people when they board a public bus or passenger train. A valid drivers license or passport would seem like a minimum.

It wouldn't bother me at all if this was a huge inconvenience for illegal aliens either.

Why not just rent a Ryder Truck and fill with amonium nitrate?

Be a lot easier, and there's been a test run to show that it works.

There are easier things to do this. A van would be as affective plus you don't have to worry about that little problem of getting busted while you take your freshly hijacked greyhound to your secrete hideout to fill it with explosives

How does having a passport or drivers license prove I'm not a terrorist? Delaying everyone for the sake of false security is a waste of time.

You are dangerous to yourself and liberty. What is wrong with erecting checkpoints on interstate highways? They could staff them with TSA trained personnel. But they would need heavy weaponry, to mow down Greyhound busses full of illegals. Just the price that YOU are willing to pay. Not ME.

Yea, my non-driving aunt should have a drivers license (!!) or passport (!!!!!) to take a bus from Toledo to visit us in Detroit.

You now have to show ID at Greyhound and Amtrak counters when buying a ticket. The problem is between the ticket counter and the bus or train. The drivers/conductors don't check IDs, or they do it rarely. AFAIK you can still buy train tickets in some places on the train and I don't know if they check IDs at that point cause I never buy tickets on board.
