Atlanta Bus Accidents Lawyers

Traffic, gas prices, and environmental concerns have made buses and other forms of public transportation an increasingly popular transportation option.  But with increased use comes increased risk of injury, both for passengers and non-passengers alike.  Providers of public transportation have a duty to exercise care in the hiring and training of their employees to assure that public safety is protected.  Bus drivers have a duty to exercise care for their passengers, pedestrians and other drivers.  Because buses are so massive, the failure by a bus driver to exercise due care can result in serious injury or even death. 

Some of the common ways that transportation providers cause injury are:

• Negligent driving
• Negligent hiring and retention
• Inadequate training
• Improper equipment maintenance
• Hours violations
• Illegal alcohol or drug use
