Driver Group - History

History

Driver Bus Lines dates back to 1931, when Eric and Reg Driver built their first bus, a 7 seat Pontiac. Together, they began operating a transit route service from Glen Iris Station to Camberwell, working day and night to make their company a success. In the late 60's Eric's two sons, Daryl and Gary, joined Driver Bus Lines and continued to build the company into an organisation providing transport and tourism operations in most major cities throughout Australia.

Driver Group today operates route services in Melbourne's eastern suburbs, charter originating in Melbourne and operating to destinations around the country, Great Sights day tours in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide and Gray Line Australia day tours in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Cairns, Adelaide, Darwin, Alice Springs and Tasmania

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The History of the world is not the theatre of happiness. Periods of happiness are blank pages in it, for they are periods of harmony—periods when the antithesis is in abeyance.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.
    Henry James (1843–1916)
