Beginning in 1923, intrastate bus service was regulated by the Virginia State Corporation Commission. Information from annual reports is available for 1923 and 1924.
A separate group of certificates with numbers followed by "C" were granted, described as operating between a city or town "and various points". These were possibly taxicab operators, and are not listed here. Meanwhile, the listed certificate numbers began being issued followed by the letter "A".
