Virginia Bus Accident Attorneys

Bus accidents are especially tragic because of the large number of passengers inherently involved in the crash. Add to this the fact that buses are not equipped with safety devices, such as seat belts and airbags, which come standard on other motor vehicles, and you have the potential for a high number of injuries and deaths in every crash. Bus accidents may be caused by a variety of factors, but the number one cause of bus accidents is negligence.

Bus drivers may be negligent in operating the vehicle. In fact, inexperience and poor driver training contribute to many bus accidents each year. Driver fatigue and inattention also contribute to a significant number of bus accidents each year.
