Injuries from Bus Accidents

Although bus accidents may be rarer than accidents involving passenger cars, trucks, and SUVs, the truth is that when they happen, the injuries that result can be life-altering. It is not uncommon to see a mix of injuries, including:

  • Injuries to the spine: Sometimes a bus accident victim feels okay after the crash, but symptoms of spinal injury crop up in the days that follow. Debilitating conditions can result.
  • Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs): Blows to the head and just the impact of being in a bus accident can result in significant TBIs. These injuries may cause cognitive and physical impairments, among other issues.
  • Fractures. When bodies are tossed around inside the cabin of a bus, bones are easily broken.
  • Burns: Serious burns can result when a fire is a factor in a bus crash.
  • Scarring/disfigurement: It is not unusual for bus accident injuries, including burns, cuts, and abrasions, to leave behind scarring and disfigurement that may necessitate future surgeries to correct.
  • Wrongful death: When a loved one dies as a result of injuries sustained in a bus accident, a surviving spouse, child, parent, or other loved one may be able to collect damages as a result.

Many people count on buses to get where they need to go, and most bus rides are pleasant enough. However, like any moving vehicle, buses are subject to the same perils on the road and the same negligent behavior by drivers and operators. When a bus accident occurs, the injuries can be quite significant, and in many cases, fatalities result. The severity of injuries often hinges on whether the bus is equipped with personal seatbelt restraints or not and whether or not the bus rolls or turns over during the event.

The Mukilteo bus accident attorneys with Russell & Hill, PLLC, have recovered hundreds of thousands of dollars for claimants involved in bus accidents. Our team understands firsthand how devastating the days, weeks, months, and even years can be following a harrowing bus crash. Recovery can be long and arduous, with many victims left needing ongoing therapy just to function in normal life again. Because of the seriousness of this type of accident, our team strives diligently to negotiate the best possible settlements for our clients—or face down the other party’s insurer in civil court.
