California School Bus Accident Attorneys

Every year numerous innocent children are seriously injured or killed due to involvement in school bus accidents across the United States.

In fact, there are more than 400,000 school buses in operation across the country, resulting in over 20,000 school bus accidents each year. Many of the school buses involved in accidents are older vehicles that are typically overcrowded and do not include seat belts for the children. In fact, only school buses manufactured after July of 2004 are required to be equipped with restraint systems for passengers.

Some school bus accidents are due to the negligence of the school bus driver, while other school bus accidents are caused by other factors, such as reckless drivers of other vehicles or faulty maintenance of the bus. Many school bus crashes occur after school, usually between 3pm and 4pm, although accidents do occur on the way to school, and during school trips. The following is a short list of some recent school bus accidents in the United States:

September 2004 – A school bus was involved in an accident with two other vehicles in Los Angeles, resulting in injuries sustained by several students, three of which were hospitalized.

September 2004 – An 18 wheeler rear ended a school bus in Texas injuring one student who had to be hospitalized.

August 2003 – All of the passengers and the driver of a school bus were injured in an Illinois accident when the driver lost control and crashed the bus. Two injured children required airlifting to be transported to the hospital.

February 2002 – A school bus transporting children and adults was involved in an accident in Minnesota killing five people and seriously injuring many other passengers when the bus hit a car and rolled over.
