School Bus Accidents and Negligence
It can be confusing to know your rights after an accident involving a school bus. As with any other accident, it is essential that a full investigation takes place. It should look at all factors involved in the accident, including the positioning of both vehicles, witness statements, and road and weather conditions. Ultimately, police must determine who had the right of way and whether anyone was breaking the law.
In a school bus accident, the challenge is holding the right person or party accountable. In some accidents involving city-owned or government-operated vehicles, your time for filing a claim is very short. And the process can be complex.
