New Yorkers use various methods of public transportation every day, bus, subway, taxi, and injuries suffered from bus accidents are on the rise. Bus accidents, whether a city bus, school bus, or tour bus, often result in serious injuries to everyone involved, including passengers, pedestrians, and drivers of passenger cars.

Bus accidents can be caused by several factors, including driver negligence, improper maintenance, or equipment malfunction. Bus drivers are obliged to secure safety for each passenger on the bus. Therefore when a bus accident occurred because a driver did not comply with his or her duty of care, the carrier might be found liable for injuries to passengers.

In general, claims for bus accident injuries are more complex than regular car accident claims because they often involve the City, County or large companies.
