There are many possible scenarios that can lead to Bus Accident Claims. They include but not limited to:

  • Negligence either by the driver, pedestrian or the driver of the other car involved in the accident.
  • Direct crash with another vehicle.
  • Being hit by a bus while you are at the bus shelter
  • Rash driving where the driver takes off before you sit down causing you to fall or being hit by something.
  • Getting an injury-mostly muscle strains as a result of the driver hurriedly moving before you completely got off the bus
  • Wet floor as a result of spillage caused by passengers that makes you trip causing injury
  • Damaged or poorly maintained buses can cause injuries.

While most bus accidents are minor, the compensation is not easy and it requires a well-trained solicitor to present your case and get you the maximum amount of compensation.

According to the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, every employer, has an obligation to ensure the health and well-being of not only their employees but also their customers.  This, therefore, can be a safe point to prove negligence.

Bus Accident Claim are either as general or special damages.  General damages take into account the mental anguish, severity of the injury, recovery time and any life-changing injuries. Special injuries, on the other hand, take care of financial compensation as a result of the accident. They can be factors such as medical costs, loss of earnings as a result of the accident, future expected medical costs and additional expenses that resulted from the accident.
