Bus Accidents

Amazingly, every day, Houston Metro buses are involved in approximately three accidents. In the year 2009, Metro buses were involved in well over 1,000 accidents. Houston Metro buses injured and killed hundreds of passengers, pedestrians, and motorists on the roads. Most of these accidents should never have occurred. Metro’s manner of dealing with these accidents is frightening. They allow their bus driver to investigate their own accidents. This is quite alarming, and is akin to the fox guarding the henhouse.

Bus Accident Violations

The Houston Chronicle reports that Houston Metro Bus drivers were issued an alarming 859 tickets for the past year. Most of the tickets were for speeding, but many were for brake, and equipment failure. Thus, Houston bus driving accidents are statistically inevitable, given the huge number of reckless bus drivers. They are needlessly endangering the pubic when they drive in a negligent and reckless manner. The law requires that they be held accountable when they cause injury and death.

Houston injury lawyer Joe Stephens represents bus driving accident victims.

In 26 years, I have handled multiple cases involving bus accident victims. I provide a FREE consultation, please call at 713 224 0000. Whatever you do, it is important that you get in touch with a board certified personal injury lawyer to help you with a bus accident injury claim. Bus accident claims adjustors who handle these claims in behalf of the bus companies are very aggressive, and experienced claims adjusters. They take pride in denying claims, and minimizing the amount of money that they pay. They are rarely fair when settling bus accident claims.
