Ketika aturan baru ICC mulai diberlakukan pada 1 November 1961, para penumpang bus diizinkan untuk duduk di mana mereka suka; plang-plang di terminal yang menandai tempat khusus "putih" dan "berwarna" dibongkar; pancuran air minum, toilet, dan ruang tunggu dijadikan satu, dan konter makan siang mulai melayani orang tanpa membedakan warna kulit.
