Who’s Liable in a Bus Accident? Know Your Rights
Bus accidents can lead to severe injuries, medical expenses, and emotional distress. Determining liability depends on whether the accident involved a public transit bus or a private operator. Public buses, run by government agencies, have unique legal protections, making claims more complex. Strict deadlines, damage caps, and procedural requirements may apply.
Private bus companies, including charter and tour buses, must meet federal and state safety standards. Liability may fall on the bus driver, company, maintenance providers, or even third parties like other drivers or government agencies responsible for road maintenance.
