While buses are considered to be one of the safest available modes of transportations, bus accidents can and do happen. In fact, California commuters are choosing bus transportation at higher numbers every year, and the number of injuries due to bus accidents is on the rise. The Experienced Southern California Personal Injury Attorneys of BISNAR | CHASE, LLP have the experience and resources to help you attain compensation for your bus accident injuries.
Though buses are expected to abide by the rules of the road, they are also held to a higher standard of care than other drivers. The “common carrier” system requires private and public bus companies to act with “utmost care” when transporting people in a bus. This standard of care can carry over to include pedestrians, other drivers or property owners associated with a bus accident. Failure to observe this stricter standard of care can present significant liability issues for the common carrier in court. California Bus Accident cases can be very complicated so it is important that you retain the services of an experienced Southern California Personal Injury Attorney.
The National Transportation Safety Board has identified driver fatigue and poor maintenance as the most common contributors to fatal bus accidents. Other factors, such as weather conditions, defective bus components, driver negligence, or poor security can also contribute to a deadly bus accident. There are over 360 million bus drivers in the United States, and this number is on the rise, making it more important than ever that bus companies, unsafe drivers and other parties are held accountable for negligence that contributes to fatal bus accidents.
Because bus accident litigation can involve multiple parties, including insurance companies, common carriers, bus manufacturers and others, it is important to hire a competent and experienced Souther California Personal Injury Attorneyr with a good reputation and a positive track record. Whether you were a passenger, a property owner, or a driver affected by a bus accident, you may have a legal right to compensation. Survivors of bus accidents may be eligible for compensation and damages based on injury to life and property.
