Bus and Shuttle Transport Accidents Cases
It takes a lot of training to operate a commercial bus safely. Likewise, it can take extra attention to vehicle maintenance to ensure that a bus does not pose a hazard to other motorists. If someone made a mistake or failed to do their job and you were hurt in a bus accident, we can help. Like many commercial vehicle accidents, driver inattention is one of the key causes or contributing factors in many bus accidents. This is compounded by the fact that some bus companies are known to hire unlicensed drivers — people who do not have a commercial driver's license (CDL) and who don't possess the necessary understanding of safety standards or regulations. If a bus or shuttle company hires an unqualified driver, or if it fails to meet safety standards with regards to proper bus maintenance, and an accident results, the company can be held liable to pay for damages. If you were hurt in a bus or shuttle accident, we can step in immediately to investigate. We will work hard to uncover evidence of incompetence or negligence and to establish a strong case for your recovery.
