Taking a ride on public transport system can be a hazardous journey especially on bus journeys. Double decker buses have tricky steps to either climb up or down and when the bus is still in motion makes it even more difficult. Taking a tumble down these steps can leave a person seriously injured and with a good case for a bus accident injury claim.
Lack of experience = bad bus driving
Lack of training from the drivers perspective can force them into making wrong decisions and causing a road accident. Drivers have a right to protect their passengers from harm and bad judgement on their part could put lives in danger. If you have had an incident where you have suffered an injury through bad driving then contact The Injury Lawyers and we can advise you if you have a right to claim for compensation.
Missiles being thrown at the bus
There has been a worrying trend in unruly behaviour of youths targeting bus drivers and passengers by throwing missiles while the vehicle is moving. This behaviour can cause the bus to swerve or brake hard thus throwing passengers from their seats to the ground and causing really nasty injuries in some cases.
Others have seen glass windows explode inwards after being struck by a missile and sending shards of glass everywhere inside the passenger sitting area. We can help you claim compensation if you have been injured after an incident of this type…
Tiredness at the wheel
During the summer months many of us like to get away and one way of getting around the country is by bus or coach. This great getaway can lead to the roads being busy and hectic during the summer months and means more concentration for bus drivers. Tiredness can creep in affecting judgement leading to accidents and injury to both the driver and passengers.
