Bus Accidents

Phoenix Bus Accident Lawyers

Dedicated Arizona Personal Injury Attorneys

Bus accidents are not as frequent as other automotive accidents, but have the potential to be disastrous because of the amount of passengers a bus can hold. Approximately 360 million Americans use buses as transportation, not to mention the millions of children that ride them to school everyday without seatbelts. Bus companies have a much higher liability for injury to their passengers than any other motorists or pedestrians, because buses are intended as passenger vehicles. If you were involved in a bus accident, this heightened liability can be advantageous to you as a victim.

Causes of Arizona Bus Accidents

The following list comprises the most common factors that contribute to bus accidents in Arizona:

• Defective machinery
• Poorly maintained machinery
• Operator error (either untrained, fatigued, or negligent)
• Poor road or weather conditions
