Drivers are required to pull over at the next pull-out whenever five or more cars are trailing them on a two-lane highway, regardless of how fast they’re going. This saves the lives of people who otherwise will try to pass. When passing a truck going the other way on a gravel highway, slow down or stop and pull as far as possible to the side of the road to avoid losing your windshield to a flying rock. Always think about the path of rocks you’re kicking up toward others’ vehicles. Make sure you’ve got a good, full-size spare tire and jack if you’re driving a gravel highway.
Holland America purchased other services to help build their business. Through Holland America, companies such as Gray Line and Westours transport visitors in buses, trains, and boats, and the Westmark hotel chain puts travelers up for the night. Today, the Alaska/Yukon operation employs more than 2,500 workers operating 184 buses, 13 railcars, and 2 day-boats. Most clients arrive in the state on one of the company’s ships (see chapter 4), but even within Alaska, chances are good that a tour you sign up for will put you on a Gray Line coach and exclusively in Westmark hotels.
