Carpundit suggests Fung Wah riders pack a fire extinguisher from now on (here's why):

... What do you expect when you only pay $15 for a trip to New York? For that money, they can barely buy diesel, let alone maintain the bus. Note that the driver apparently doesn't speak English (or wasn't willing to) and did not communicate the need to evacuate the bus - passengers did. ...

Tim reports he was cut off twice by the same Fung Wah bus on I-93 north:
