Buses Can Be Highly Dangerous

We need to point out that most buses and bus drivers are safe and that most bus rides are completed without any incident at all. However, when a bus does get into a crash, it can be devastating for many groups. This include:

  • The bus passengers and driver
  • Drivers and passengers in other vehicles
  • Third parties such a bicyclists and pedestrians

Buses are very large vehicles that weigh much more than a traditional passenger car. When they are involved in a crash, the likelihood of serious injuries occurring is much higher. We commonly see the following injuries in the aftermath of a bus crash:

Each of these injuries needs emergency medical care. For the more severe Injuries, a victim will likely need surgery and extensive rehabilitation in order to make a full recovery. In the meantime, Medical Bills will begin to pile in.

What happens if insurance companies refuse a claim or do not cover the full amount?

What if a victim cannot work while they are recovering and loses income?

Bus Accidents are More Common than You Think

According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, both inter-city buses and school buses are regularly involved in crashes. From 2016 to 2017, the number of fatal bus crashes in the US totaled 232 and thousands of passengers were injured.

It is vital that bus drivers operate responsibly and are properly trained. They should never be impaired or distracted. Bus companies and agencies should always inspect and maintain each vehicle in order to prevent vehicle failure.
