Seek Compensation for Your Injuries – Call (954) 522-9322
While the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) has required all passenger vehicles to be equipped with seatbelts since 1968, buses are strangely exempt from this rule. Given the absence of seatbelts for passengers and the massive size advantage of commercial buses over most other vehicles, collisions involving buses can cause incredible devastation to all parties involved.

Common Causes of Bus Accidents
A bus accident can be caused by a nearly infinite number of circumstances, though in many cases they occur as a direct result of some form of negligence. Collisions involving commercial buses can expose those involved to a wide range of serious injuries, including broken bones, whiplash, concussions, brain damage, spinal cord damage, and in serious cases, death.
A bus accident can be caused by any of the following negligent acts:
- Driving while distracted
- Driving while exhausted
- Driving under the influence
- Failing to check blind spots
- Skipping bus safety inspections
- Improper bus maintenance
If it can be proven that your collision was the result of another party’s careless or reckless actions, you may be able to recover monetary compensation for your medical bills, lost wages and earning ability, rehabilitation costs, property damage, and pain and suffering. If you have lost a loved one as the result of injuries sustained in a bus accident, you may be able to secure additional compensation for wrongful death.
