What Makes Bus Accident Cases Different?

Bus accidents often involve more than just the driver. These cases can include government agencies, school districts, private companies, or even bus manufacturers. That means more rules, stricter deadlines, and a greater need for experienced legal representation.

Bus accidents may include:

  • Public transit accidents involving PalmTran or other city-operated buses
  • School bus crashes are affecting students and families
  • Charter and tour bus accidents involving out, of, state or private companies
  • Shuttle van or airport bus collisions on hotel or commercial property
  • Pedestrian or cyclist injuries caused by buses

Unlike typical car accidents, bus accident claims often include multiple layers of liability. At William W. Price, P.A., we dig deep into every case to identify all responsible parties and make sure nothing is overlooked.

What to Do After a Bus Accident

If you’ve been involved in a bus accident, here are the steps you should take to protect your rights:

  • Seek medical attention right away, even if injuries seem minor
  • Report the accident to law enforcement and request a copy of the report
  • Document the scene, if possible, with photos and witness contact information
  • Avoid speaking with insurance companies until you’ve spoken with a lawyer
  • Contact a West Palm Beach bus accident attorney as soon as you can

These early steps can make a big difference in the outcome of your case. The sooner we get involved, the better we can preserve evidence, gather witness statements, and start building a strong claim.
