Handling bus accident claims can be challenging, as buses are typically owned and operated by corporations or government entities.

These factors present added difficulties that your lawyer must be prepared to face. At CR Legal Team, we are up for the challenge. We are committed to following through on our promise to Stand Up For You.
The Serious Consequences of a Bus Accident
Bus accidents are one of the most serious types of traffic accidents that occur on our nation’s roadways. These types of incidents can be especially damaging for three key reasons:
- Buses are large vehicles and can cause considerable damage when they are involved in a collision. Other, smaller vehicles are more likely to sustain serious damage in a crash.
- Buses may carry dozens of people at a time, meaning more people may be injured in a crash.
- Bus passengers may be standing at the time of a collision or may not be wearing seat belts, increasing the likelihood of serious injuries.
