What Are the Common Causes of Commercial Bus Accidents?

Commercial bus accidents can occur for a variety of reasons, some of which are preventable and others that are unavoidable. Commercial bus accidents can have devastating consequences due to the weight and size of the vehicle involved. A bus accident often results in injuries, but they may also cause fatalities.

There are several common causes of commercial bus accidents, such as:

  • Driver negligence and error, including speeding, reckless driving, driving while distracted or driving under the influence
  • Poor mechanical maintenance, leading to failing brakes and other problems that can point to bus company negligence  instead of driver error
  • Bad weather conditions, including ice, snow and driving rain
  • Poorly maintained roads, including potholes and confusing signage
  • The actions of other drivers on the road
  • Pedestrians and cyclists doing unexpected things, like crossing the road suddenly

Whether you’re driving a car, riding a bike, walking on the sidewalk or riding inside the bus, realize that your actions can prevent a commercial bus accident. It’s incumbent on bus companies to promote safe driving practices, ensure regular maintenance of buses and provide appropriate driver training. Government entities must maintain and improve the road infrastructure in its jurisdiction. When someone fails and it leads to an accident, they create liability.
