Other Notable Post War Interstate Operators Alongside Reg Ansett and Rex Law. To provide a reasonably comprehensive understanding of the overall state of play within the long distance industry in which Reg Ansett and Rex Law were new entrants, I will provide here some relevant if not entirely comprehensive historical information about each of the other players lined up to compete after the war. There were other largely regional operators in the mix who would later venture onto the long distance stage, such as Greyhound, Kirkland Bros and New England Motor co.

This type of community-based option has proven to be quite effective in easing the reintegration process, but there are additional programs that offer an even more personal and interactive approach. Circles of Support and Accountability is a perfect example; COSA works with people who have committed crimes, specifically sex offenders, to reintegrate them into communities where they feel unwelcome and unwanted.

“Teenager’s Jailing Brings a Call to Fix Sex Offender Registries,” is an article written by Julie Bosman, and published by the New York Times Newspaper.
