¿Quién es responsable de un accidente de autobús?

You have the right to seek compensation from the responsible party. This might include the bus driver, the bus company, the city, or the bus manufacturer.

If the driver was responsible for the accident, you can name him/her in your lawsuit. Often, you can name the bus driver's employer or management company as well.

If the accident was caused by poor maintenance, you can seek compensation from the bus owner or management company. This might include accidents caused by brake failure or worn tires.

Sometimes, accident victims can name the city government in their claim, if the bus accident involved a city-owned vehicle.

Drunk driving is responsible for approximately 28 deaths in America every day. Drunk driving is especially dangerous when the vehicle contains passengers.

Driving while tired is another common factor related to car accidents. Distracted driving, including texting and eating, is equally as dangerous.

In fact, some researchers believe that texting while driving is more dangerous than driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

FAQS Regarding Bus Accidents

Who can be held responsible for a bus accident in Texas?

The responsible party depends on the cause. This can include the bus driver, the bus company or management company that employs them, the bus manufacturer if a defective part contributed to the crash, or the city government if the bus was a city-owned vehicle. Many bus accidents involve more than one liable party.

What compensation can I recover after a bus accident?

You may recover compensation for hospitalization, doctor visits, medication, and pain and suffering, along with lost income if your injury affects your ability to work.

If the accident resulted in the death of a loved one, you can pursue funds for funeral expenses, lost consortium, and other wrongful death damages.

What are the most common causes of bus accidents?

The most common causes include drunk or drugged driving, tired or inattentive driving, aggressive driving or speeding, and poor road maintenance.

Distracted driving, including texting or eating behind the wheel, is also a leading cause and is considered by some researchers to be as dangerous as driving under the influence.

What should I do after being injured in a bus accident?

Seek medical attention right away, even if your injuries seem minor. Report the accident, get the names of witnesses if possible, and avoid giving a recorded statement to an insurance adjuster before speaking with an attorney. Then contact our office for a free, no-obligation consultation.

How long do I have to file a bus accident claim in Texas?

Generally two years from the date of the accident, and two years from the date of death in a wrongful death case. If a city-owned bus was involved, shorter notice deadlines may apply, so it's important to have your case reviewed as soon as possible.
