Liability in Bus Accident Claims
Bus accident claims are often more complex than other motor vehicle accident claims. First, the bus driver is not usually the party responsible for the collision. Buses are large and heavy, and they can be difficult to maneuver. Additionally, bus drivers may be subject to strict schedules and pressure from their employers to stay on time. This can lead to drivers making errors and causing crashes.
Fortunately, you can hold the bus driver’s employer liable for the negligence of the driver. This is because employers are generally responsible for the actions of their employees while they are working. This includes paying compensation for the medical bills, lost income, and other losses of injured parties.
In addition to the driver and their employer, other parties may also be liable in bus accident claims. For example, if the bus had a mechanical defect that caused the driver to lose control, you may have a claim against the manufacturer of the bus or the part that was defective. If a bus accident happened because of a dangerous road condition, you may have a claim against the city or county responsible for road maintenance.
Our bus accident attorneys know how to identify all possible liable parties, and we will take legal action against each one to seek the full amount you deserve for your losses.
