Types of Orange County Bus Accidents

Bus accident claims can be complex, regardless of whether they involve school buses, commercial buses or transit buses run by cities or governmental agencies. In Orange County, we have both public and private bus companies. It is important to understand the different types of bus accidents in order to help your Orange County Bus Accident Lawyer with your case.

Orange County School Bus Accidents: School bus drivers have the important responsibility of safely transporting our children. When school bus drivers operate negligently, they put the safety of our children at risk. When the negligence of a school bus driver causes an accident, the driver and his or her employer and the school district can be held liable. Many school districts in Orange County also have to make the important decision of whether to equip their school buses with seatbelts. Not all school boards vote in favor of seatbelts in buses given the tough budget constraints facing our school districts. Many Orange County school districts have not updated their fleet of buses leaving these large vehicles poorly maintained and sometimes, neglected.

Crashes Involving Transit Buses: Riding the bus to work and school is quickly becoming a way of life in Orange County. Riders depend on mass transit bus systems to get to their daily destinations. It is important that the transit authorities and governmental agencies that run these vehicles maintain them in good shape. Failure to do so can place their passengers in grave danger.

Tour Bus Accidents: Hundreds of Orange County residents, especially seniors, depend on tour buses to get to entertainment destinations such as resorts and casinos. Tour bus companies owe it to passengers to hire qualified and licensed drivers who have a clean record. Bus companies are also required to screen their drivers randomly for alcohol and drug use. Driver fatigue is often a factor in tour bus crashes. It is critical that drivers receive sufficient rest before they get on the road. Proper vehicle maintenance is also a must in order to avoid major injury crashes.

California Bus Accident Investigations

Investigation of bus accidents can get extremely complex. Usually, local law enforcement agencies investigate these crashes. However, in the case of major bus crashes, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) may get involved. These investigations often continue for months before a determination is made. Investigators will likely look into several factors as they examine the cause of the accident, injuries or fatalities such as:

  • Seatbelt use
  • Crash-worthiness of the vehicle
  • Qualifications of the bus driver
  • Driver impairment
  • Fatigue
  • Defective products such as brakes, tires, etc.
  • Driver records and bus maintenance logs
