Bus Accidents

Let us handle your bus accident case while you get well

Accidents involving buses often result in very serious injuries. Various problems contribute to the danger and injuries common in bus accidents. One problem involves the size and heavy-duty bus construction. Although cars and trucks are increasingly being made with lighter materials, like fiberglass, the bus is still built like a tank. While it is a great benefit for those riding in the bus, when a major collision occurs, it is extremely difficult to move strong metal components during extrication procedures. On the other hand, such a huge vehicle poses grave danger for a smaller, fiberglass car.

Another problem that increases the potential of a school bus incident is driver training and bus maintenance. Buses are on the road every day of the week. Although many travel the same route, bus drivers can be aggressive or face other dangerous drivers. Evaluating all the possible causes of a serious accident is a job for an experienced bus accident lawyer. 

Civil and criminal bus accident lawsuits have been filed when some type of failure of either the bus manufacturing or its driver caused an accident. Injury victims may also need an attorney's help in finding an appropriate medical specialist or pursuing a certain course of legal action.
