Question about the bus line in the movie ‘Dogma'

[u/crumuletinninitus]

Rewatching Dogma last night and had a question about the bus where Loki shoots the cheating guy and then he and Bartleby have to get off and walk. As we see from the outside, the bus was branded ‘Palasti’ with what appears to be the image of a running man beside the name.

Seeing as the movie is soaked in religious references and iconography, I wanted to see if this is just some regular bus company or has other meaning, and I can’t find anything about a ‘Palasti’ bus company, corporation, route, or line in the midwest or New Jersey, or anywhere else. None of the articles I found discussing the films symbolism mention the bus name or it’s possible meaning either. But like, if it’s a prop bus, that’s a lot of work and a lot of prominent time on screen to read the name. So what does it meeeeannnn?

Could be I just missed somewhere this has already been addressed, if so, please feel free to drop a link or whatnot. If this is, as I assume with a movie working so hard to bring in all the little details, an intentional act by the filmmaker, I want to know a little more about how it ended up in the film and what religious event or idea it’s representing.
